[6pack] hayden fan malfunction

[j.honor at comcast.net]

Bob, thanks I saw your previous thread in archives. actually now waiting on
art lipps new combined aluminum radiator and spall fan-as you installed. new
one will now alos have the on-off-on switch and lite. will need to sort out
how to do that-we"ll talk. I am going to as others recommeded to hotwire fan
to rule in or out its function and then see about thermastat then relay. I am
hoping the fan or thermastat so platform isn't all garbage for new equipement.
fresh start though is also OK. hate electronics. need to get skill sets on a
good meter I know will help! regards, Joe

I sure wouldn't want to be cruising down the road when the fan failed and
killed the engine! I'd suggest you wire the fan to an idiot light (I used
the EGR light) that goes on when the fan is running. B What I've found is
that as long as I'm moving at about 30 mph or more the fan never runs. The
other thing I have is a 3-way switch: auto-on, manual-on and manual-off.
