High Speed Fan Relay Melted

[BigdogRyan]

Hey guys, this weekend I got a overheating warning in my 2016 FiST fully stock. I found my high speed fan relay pretty melted and an curious how I can fix this. Can I get away with just plugging in a new relay and monitoring for any burning or melting or should I get this looked into and/or fix the melted part of my fuse box? Thanks

I know this is an old post but literally the the exact same thing happened to me same prong and appearance on the relay. Was curious what you ended up doing.

I am going to cut out the melted portion of the fuse box and install a new 4 pin connector. Could be the fan was getting old or requesting too much amperage and that is what caused the melting but I don't think so. Since the fan and shroud are 200+$ i'm going to do the new relay and connector first and see what happens. If it occurs again then I know I need to change the fan.

Would be nice to hear what you ended up doing.

Hopefully my answer helps anyone else that has had issues.
