[6pack] hayden fan malfunction

[Bob Wanderer]

Steve,
I would suggest that having the motor stop because the electric fan malfunctioned is not a good idea.  Perhaps the fan can be wired to a warning light to let you know the fan is broken (as opposed to just being off since it does cycle).  Regardless, I am sure you monitor the water temp gauge, so you can take whatever action you deem appropriate should you see it rise past some arbitrary "worry" point.

Go to the fan directly first and then backtrack. (much faster to type than do)
 If I may add to this thread, is there a way for the electrically ignorant
(me) to wire an electric fan so if it were to die, the spark to the motor
would also be cut?

problems.
