Do you have 12v into the thermoswitch with the key ON? If yes, it
must be the wire to the brush, the brush not making contact with the
brass ring on the back of the pulley, too wide a gap twixt pulley and
hub, or defective electromagnet.
The relay for the electric fan is under a plastic cover ahead of the
radiator. The low-speed rheostat resistor for the electric fan is
ahead of the radiator on the frame rail. The a/c circuit bypasses
the resistor for the high speed of the fan. There is also a diode
under the plastic cover to isolate the magnetic fan from the electric one.
Feel free to call for further elaboration. 802-454-7132 (If you can
catch me inside!)
