Removing Cooling Fan Switch. 91 Z 5.7
The high temp switch in the passenger side head. The single wire connector won't plug back onto it. I think the internal connection in the switch may be dammaged / bent. So I need to get it out to see.

I get to it. Moved the dip stick. Remove+ from battery then moved connection wires on starter out of the way.

I have the 22mm wrench on it. Great tight fit. When I put removing pressure on the wrench it turns the outer nut face but the center part of this switch that the wire plugs into is not turning with the outer nut.....

Anyone had this happen? I'm a little spooked at whats happening here. Please, any wisdom/advise appreciated. I'm taking a breather for a bit to see if anyone can help.

An help / experience appreciated please.
Thanks all.

Re: Removing Cooling Fan Switch. 91 Z 5.7
Okay so it was my eyes and the short stroke I was getting on it. Its out. And I suppose it was turning from the begining.
Here it is

Anyone got a good lead on mating connectors for these??

Oh and of course the connection was fine so no telling what was going on while I was trying to plug it back in. But the connector is busted so I need a new one. DOH!

Mine did not have all the plastic hood like this one does. Maybe mine was broken off. Does anyone recognize this

EFI connection for the connector part and back in with the perfectly functional switch. Back in business...
