Curious about a behavior I've observed with my '18 Ram 3.6L. Electric fan cycles on for about 5 seconds when started from cold. It never ramps up speed, just comes on at a low RPM for a short cycle, then goes off. After, it stays off and only comes on at the normal activation temps or in conjunction with A/C request. Curious why it does this cycle on cold startup. It's not impacting anything, just curious if anybody has input or experience with it.
