Is this on a T3 ?.... I guess you mean the fan on the oil cooler situated at the front of the van..? Mine cut in yesterday while just standing on idle outside a shop waiting for a female..! .... and on my Syncro Iv'e heard it cut in a couple of times while off-roading....

skru av grillen, sett på tenningen og kortslutt følerene ved og legge en spiker eller noe i mellom kontaktene, da skal den starte om føleren og vifta virker.
virker den ikke da så tar du av kontaktene og kortslutter de.
om jeg ikke husker helt feil er det slik jeg gjorde det "i min ungdom.

Tror kanskje mi vifte gikk i fjor en gang, ikke ofte disse sviver. Om du ikke har problem med høy motortemperatur ville jeg ikke bekymret meg.

Viften går stort sett bare når bilen står stille, og går på tomgang, eller ved sakte kjøring. Til vanlig er det fartsvinden som kjøler, og når man står stille med disse bilene så tar det endel tid før kjølevannet har rukket å bli såpass varmt, selv ved varm motor, at viften slår inn. Og når du da i tillegg har diesel, så er det enda mindre varmeproduksjon enn bensinmotor.

I know that some T3 owners prefer to mount a switch that gives you the option to run the fan manually. Its not a big job and it works!. I had this mounted on my Subaru powered Syncro and i felt than being on advance coolingvise was a great advantage. If i knew i was going to bee in city traffic i turned it on before the engine started to get hot.

Just remember to turn it of when driving at highway speed so that you do not wear out the fan motor...
