If the inside of the dash is less hot than the empeg, then yes, of course you can reduce the heat of the empeg. But I thought we already determined that the fan wasn't helping and was actually making the problem worse. That would imply that the inside of the dash was hotter than the empeg.

...and why wouldn't the dash be hotter than the empeg?
Coolant temps are nominally 220F+.
Those same temps are transferred through the heater core to the air in the ductwork... and the ductwork itself.

//hot topic, eh?
