You need to go get a 40 amp switch and a circut breaker style fuse. (this is what I did and havn't had a problem) I believe the fuse was a 40 or 50 amp and it has studed connections.

yes you can run a switch and can do away with the temp. sensor also. auto zone sells the circuit breakers so does advance

I got all of my stuff from advance. Yes the switch is a toggle switch that cost 4-5 bucks. A circuit breaker style fuse is one that when it is heated to its amperage it will automatically flip itself off instead of blowing and after about 30 seconds it cools off enough to flips itself back on. It is just a little metal box that has 2 posted on it with nuts that screw on it. I put it inline on the power side from the fuse box to the fan.
