4K-C Thermo Fan

[NOCHNCE]

i am buying an electric thermo fan for my car, the engine isnt worked or anything.

 

i want to know what thermo switch i should be getting for the right cut in and cut out temperature.

 

i found this kit on ebay, please let me know if it would suit, otherwise any advice would be sweet!!

well acording to the engine manual. thermostat opens at 86 degrees.

 

i got a digital temp gauge in my ke55 and i see the temp rise up to 82-84 then drop straight down to 72 when the thermostat opens.

the easiest way to wire a thermo up is straight into a fuse, then into a relay (if ya want to and can't be bothered mucking around with the relay, run it up to a switch) then from the relay to the switch in the car,

 

The motor doesn't necasarily need to be worked to have a thermofan, i honestly hate engine fans, i think there over rated and fail at life :P

 

Power from battery to fuse, from fuse to relay, power from relay to thermo, earth relay, power from relay to one side of the switch,, power for switch from ACC in car to the other side of the switch

Our thermostat opens at 82 the, Thermo's cut in at 95 and out at 90.

I used a thero switch out of a subaru that screws into the thrmostat housing.

The switch cost about 40 bucks, and the relay about 10.

Log on to the tridon web site there are heaps of options for thermo switchs. http://www.tridon.com.au/

 

In the pix the switch is in the roght side of the housing.

KE70 some came factory with thermo fans.

 

I use a KE70 thermo switch. Can still but was $40 when I got mine last. Just get stock switch relay fan (commodore ones I find fit KE30 huge work well and cheap) and your ready to cool. Cost me $70 in total last time for fan thermo switch and wire and relay.
