Fan constantly running loud
Well the other day i was driving and recently my fan was doing what everybody said, goin hard and loud then real low. Next thing i know like i hear my engine got louder so i turn my music off and listen. So i turned my car off revved it up a little and realize the fan hasnt came on. And still hasnt. So am i needing the fan controller?

I have only noticed my fan running loud once and it was a few weeks ago when my car was idling, I've been trying to hear it do it again but it hasn't. I guess i'll just have to keep my ears open.
If the fans aren't turning on at all , your car will heat up when ever you come to a stop. As long as you keep moving the radiator will keep cool but traffic and long lights could be a killer. Keep your eye on the temp gauge and you should be alright. Or if not .....

Well, on the bright side at least you have a new FCM. I'd check out the wiring from the fans, that could be a likely culprit my friend 
Turn your ac on to check if your second fan is coming on as well.
