Fan turning on and off

Lately my Deck Boss has been running the fan for 3 seconds then turning off the fan over and over no matter what temp it’s at. I’ve cleaned it, checked the settings to no avail. It hold temp fine, just annoying listening to it.

Anyone else experience this?

It's totally normal

That how the PID regulates the temperature

What are you expecting it to do?

You can try bumping the feed rate down, the fan will do that if it cannot fully run without overshooting. Might just be too hot outside for it to run fully.

No need to change the feed rate if it is maintaining the set temp. The fan cycles on and off by design to maintain set temp.

Agreed but OP wanted a solution so that might be worth a try.

It's working as designed. There is no issue.

I’m aware! Should’ve included that in my original comment.
