Try the Uh, Woody -- unless they changed things in the late models (my Bentley is buried in snow in the driveway) there is no such relay. Wire goes from fuse over to switch, then from switch directly to fan and also to two taps on fan resistor. Maybe a PO put a relay in yours, the way VW should have? It would be pretty simple as long as they only ran the high-speed lead through the relay (which is the one that needs it). But controlling all three speeds would mean three relays. david David Beierl - Providence, RI http://pws.prserv.net/synergy/Vanagon/ '84 Westy "Dutiful Passage" '85 GL "Poor Relation" |
