Fan Switch
When i was looking for a fan switch, on @ 92 of 85, tried local place 2 days no luck.
Thought i would try halfords, the responce i will get some one who knows. He comes out, so its a switch, no and explaind what it was, i think you
would have to try a scrap yard i don't think we do them!
Cheers

hmm, halfords isn't actually a motor factors though. you'd expect them to know what a fan switch is though, but their main thing is car
audio, car care (washing and stuff), generic spares (bulbs and stuff) and bikes

is your friend. You can hunt around until you find numbers that suit you better.
I think these are on old VW passats in the UK, later models have switches with 3 connectors that can run two fans (come on at different temperatures),
but that is more than you need.

I went though exactly the same thing... went into Hellfrauds and asked if they did radiator fan switches and got a blank look, explained what it was
and they guy asked for my registration so he could look it up on the system and order me one in. I walked away.
Next day went to the local motor factors and asked, guy pulled out a catalogue and went through all the options of different temp ranges and output
pins with me.
Moral of the story, only use Halfords if your are desperate, and even then be prepared for disappointment.

Yep no good unless its a radio, window filim or a big daft exhaust.
The local guy who had the motor factors was spot on he grew up on all the old school stuff, escorts, capri's and cortina's.
