Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if my fan switch has failed? A: A fan that runs nonstop or never turns on when the engine gets hot usually points to a bad switch. Testing the connector for continuity at the rated temperature confirms whether replacement is needed.

Q: Does this switch need any wiring changes? A: It is designed to plug into the factory harness and thread into the stock location with no rewiring. Confirm your model year and connector style match before ordering.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
