View Full Version : Fan switch qeustion
If I unplug the fan-switch connector and put a voltmeter across the connector's female-ended terminals, should I get get 12 volts across it or zero volts?
should get 12V if iv'e pictured it right
Thanks. Will check it tonight.
not sure myself - but as the water heats up, the circuit should open and trigger the fan to cut in - but i could be miles wrong - ive never checked on tbh.

If I understand the way it works, the fan switch remains open until 92C. It then closes to activated the fan until the temperature drops to 82C (I am using the "hotter" fan-switch).
I am going to extend the wires slightly as, I believe, the connectors gets dislodge eveytime I send the car in for an oil/filter change (the wire hangs right over the oil filter - what a stupid design!). And yes, as per Gunnergibson fire hazard warning, I will be using 20amp rated wires.
thats true mate....at the last change mine broke off completly....but the guy never told me. only found out when me temp needle almost went vertical.
sorted now though.
