Thermo Switch continuity.


Recommended Posts

I'm fitting and connecting up a pusher fan to my radiator through a relay, with the ignition on and manual override switch off the fan still works, tried a continuity check on the thermo switch and it has continuity with a cold engine. Should this happen the switch is screwed into the bottom water in pipe.

Wouldn’t have thought so Paul!

the switch should be ‘normally open’ , only closing its contacts to turn on the fan at an appropriately hot temp

If its a new one some are normally open and some are normally closed, you obviously have the normally closed.

Hi Stuart yes its a new one the suppliers are sending another so will check when it arrives, think its the same part number as TDI Landrover.

The part number is PRC3359 which according to Landy Zone is normally closed. Correct again Stuart.
