Electric Fan override switch - ttikalsky - 08-02-2005 14:23 I have a 1983 FC 33 with the electric fan on the motor, the type that spins freely until the temperature reaches 189 degrees and then engages (hopefully) by locking the fan to the pully. I would like to add a switch so I could engage the fan when desired. I just replaced the Alarmstat because the motor was overheating and the fan was not engaging. I verified the fan engages when I ground the one of the wires coming from the fan. I believe this is what happens when the alarmstat reaches 189 degrees. There are 3 connections on the alarmstat labeled "NO", "C" and "NC". The "C" connector has power at all times. The "NO" has power when the key is on. Does anyone know exactly how this works and has anyone added an override switch? Troy, 83FC33 |
