Radiator fan switch

[Jimmmy0_0]

Hi all

I am looking to fit a radiator fan switch, but am not sure what temp I need.

Would the car being setup for doing autosolos and track days make any difference ?

Does anyone know what temp I should be using?

Thanks James

James,


Are you using megajolt? that will control the fan itself

Here's a list:

Its for the spitfire and not the Gt6. Just need it to switch the fan on.

I guess you want one that brings it back to working temp — I presume you want one that turns on at an acceptable overheating temp and turns off just below your thermostat temp?

I actually have one sitting in my rad that I never ended up using — it's just blocking the hole :)

It depends on where the switch will be put (and what temp stat you have)
1) Stat cover
2) Top of rad
3) Bottom of rad
4) somewhere else !!

I ended up with mine on the top of rad opposite the top hose
I think I ended up with a 87 on and 82 off
I ended up buying two or three different temp ones until I got one I was happy with
I'll check what I have tomorrow and confirm
