Sometimes the thermo switch gets stuck( happened to me) so I put a switch (no) across the contacts on the thermo switch on the radiator and ran it to the cockpit under the dash so if it did not come on at 185 I could manauly override it while driving. Cheap saftey precaution.

More proof that nothing is ever NORMAL with Ferrari. If it were my car, regardless of what was standard, I?d opt to make both fans come on when the thermo switch turns on. And Clyde, don?t forget how much hotter the air into the radiator because when you turn on the a/c because of the heat from the condenser?..so I?m not entirely convinced that turning on the a/c will help cooling the engine.

If it went to 225 or higher you might have serious issues down the road Otherwise One fan comes on when the thermo switch hits 185 The other fan only comes on when you switch on the A/C By pass the circuit and put 12 volts to the fans If they spin most likely it a blown fuse In early 3 series cars you should change clean the fuse box yearly I use to put that stud that comes in the box which absorbs moisture in my fuse box And ECU compartment as well Also rotate your relays yearly Clyde In victory you deserve Champagne In defeat you need it! <image003.jpg> Scars are Tattoos with better stories !

After stopping, I found the fans are not running. Thus, this weekend will be troubleshooting? Can you verify ? 1) If I short the thermostat connector pins, should the fans turn on? 2) Do both fans always operate, or is there a mode where only 1 fan would turn on? 3) There are no other components in the fan circuit, just the fans/thermostat connection/elect relay ? correct? 4) Which relay is the fan relay?
