I've had trouble with mine too. I've gone through 3-4 and they still never seem to last. Mine will come on and then not shut off.

This would have been good info to include earlier in this thread.

Would you have a pic of your engine? Why is your regular engine powered fan not enough?

I removed the mechanical fan when I installed the electric. The electric fan worked exponentially better than the old fixed blade ever did.

I'm actually about to go buy a thermo switch this weekend. What temps are you guys running (Or, what temp SHOULD they be working at..

) for a 180 therm? You guys running 200on, 185 off or something?
