Where is the temp Guage and electic fan sending unit?
Where is the temp Guage and electic fan sending unit?
Installed the temp sender for gauge where the original one was installed on the driver’s side head. I also have A/C, so I installed a diode in the power lead to the fans to keep the current from “back flowing” to the relay when the A/C is turned on.
What kind of sender does a cooling fan need?
A cooling fan, however, requires a different type of temperature sender, much like the one in our Fan Relay Kits. That sender contains a switch, rather than a variable resistor, and is either on or off. A cold engine will provide an open circuit, and no current can flow from the sender to the fan relay.
Where is the temp sender and fan relay?
Switch in drivers side head, temp sender in the intake, however the fan still comes on when the ignition is turned on which makes me think either something is wrong with the temp switch or the relay. well i got the temp sender and the temp switch installed.

Are there any electric fan sending units left?
Only 4 left in stock – order soon. . Only 12 left in stock – order soon. . . Only 11 left in stock – order soon. . . Only 2 left in stock – order soon.
How does a temp switch work on a fan relay?
Also that temp switch supplies the switchable ground connection to the fan relay. Since you have the gauge and the fan wired in parallel, the relay may be picking up a sneak path to ground through the autometer gauge and which is then turning the relay on, effectively bypassing the temp swich altogether.
How does a coolant temp sensor work on a fan?
Coolant Temp Sensor – LH head. I have used a t-stat housing mounted fan switch with excellent results. Sounds like you hooked up a gauge to a temperature switch. That’s a problem right there. A gauge won’t run off a temperature switch. Also that temp switch supplies the switchable ground connection to the fan relay.
Do you need a temp switch for a dashboard gauge?
You have to get a dedicated temperature sending unit for a dashboard gauge. The temp switch you have now is only for the fans. yeah thats what i figured, now i gotta figure out where i should mount the sending units, cause it appears i only have 2 choices, drivers side head, and intake.
