E-Fan Questions

[redram2007]

I currently have the flexalite 183 installed and i dont much care for the temp sensor probe that you push through the radiator fins. I found a 38mm (1 1/2") adapter to install in the upper radiator hose by splicing the hose. It has a 1/8" NPT threads for a temp sensor but most sensors i have found only have 1 post for the wires. The probe that i have now has 2 wires that go to the VSC. Maybe hook both wires to the sensor? I have check for continuity and there is no resistance in the 2 wires to the probe. Has anyone done this or have any suggestions on how to wire it up to the flexalite VSC?

Are you still gonna have the fan trigger by the temp sensor or run a manual toggle and just have a more accurate reading?

I am just wanting to relocate the sensor and change it up but i still have a toggle switch for backup in case it doesn't come on. I also just got off the phone with flexalite and since the silicone that holds the wires in the probe is separating they are sending me the T for the radiator hose and the sensor for free. So im good to go now.

That is the reason why I will always buy Flexalite for my fans. You wont find better customer service when it comes to warranty work or tech support.

The bad thing is i already ordered an adapter from ebay and i already had a temp sensor. So i guess i'll have these extra to sell someone or keep as a backup.

Agreed. Their customer service rocks. If you were to buy a Taurus fan or something like it you dont get service like that.

The Taurus fans are just good cheap fans that move a ton of CFM. Kinda turns into easy install run Flexalite, move involved install with fab work is the Taurus.
