Since the op found one, anyone else looking to sell one in decent condition? My original housing is destroyed because the original owner did not take care of the cooling system. I have a spare from a jdm engine but it only has a hole for one sensor on the back.
I'm considering buying a new one but figured I would see what deals are available.
From what I've read the newer ecu's we're able to power all speeds of the fan and the older models used a sensor(switch) in addition to the ecu temp sensor to change fan speeds.
I have also read that my power fc should control the fans in all speeds with just the one sensor but I would hate to have it all back together in the car only to have issues with my cooling fans.
Here are pictures to show the differences in my housings.
Hmmm. Earlier JDM likely had that "thermoswitch" as well.
Although that switch is about 12" away from the fan relays, the wiring passes through the emission harness, to the dash harness and then back out through the front harness. (Fun fact.)
Yeah I'm sure all series 6 fd's had the thermoswitch. I'm not sure exactly when they changed.
I'm interested to see what you have available and how much you are asking. Let me know. I'm leaning towards just buying a new one since it's going on a brand new keg.
Sorry I never got back to you before now. I think I'm going to use the jdm housing I have. I did a lot of research and it should work for me. Thanks for the pictures and offering up one of your spares.
