What are the symptoms of a faulty car electronic fan temperature control switch?
1 Answers
The symptom of a faulty car temperature control switch is that the electronic fan behind the radiator cannot function properly. The car's radiator is located at the front of the vehicle and can be seen by opening the engine hood. The function of the electronic fan behind the radiator: The electronic fan is controlled by a thermostat. When the water temperature rises to the upper limit, the thermostat connects the power supply, and the fan starts working. When the water temperature drops to the lower limit, the thermostat disconnects the power supply, and the fan stops working. Its function is to cool the engine radiator. Reasons why the electronic fan cannot work properly: Excessive internal dust causing poor heat dissipation. Dust can slow down the fan's rotation or cause fan failure, which can also affect the operation of the car radiator fan, so it should be checked regularly. How the car temperature control works: The temperature control switch has a bimetallic strip inside with different thermal expansion coefficients, which allows it to deform at a certain critical temperature range, causing the contacts to connect. When the power supply is reached, it returns to its initial state within this temperature range and cuts off the power supply.
