Can anyone confirm? O'Reilley cross referenced this from the GP Sorensen FS1 referenced here:

I'd like to know for sure that it has the same on/off specs, or at least close. I'm looking for something relatively high temp (like 220) to run the second fan.

 

Might as well keep the stock fan switch if you want it to come on at 220°. The stock fan switch turns the fan on at 235°. That link is partially wrong. Single fan cars don't use fan switches. They're controlled by the ECM.

 

I'm doing a retrofit, there's no stock switch. I just want something with 3/8"x18 threads and a convenient connector type. I have the BWD in hand, but I got nervous that it might not be right temp wise.

 

TFS1 is the stock closing temp - 238* F.

Might be better off with TFS4 - closing temp is 211* F.

 

Okay, thanks. Now I know that the BWD matches the GP Sorensen list I was looking at. Hmm, yeah 238 seems kind of high, but I guess if it was good enough for the factory it should be okay for me. My main concern is to have it well above the temp range fan #1 is working at, which is currently to come on at 203. I'm running the first fan with ECM, second with switch.
