    It's always on high when a/c is on.

      Interesting - I thought a/c on = low speed aux fan
      good to know!

        really? I'm for sure is low because when my temp gauge needle go over half mark the high would kick on.

          Not true when you turn on the ac it turns it on low it will only come on high if it reaches the temp setting or you jump the wiring

            in which i want it to be high instead of low. damn a/c high is at 400 :{

              Hmmm. I guess I was misinformed.

              I have my electric puller come on when the a/c kicks on too. You can feel the vacuum through the front grille.

                  best way to get the fan on high speed full time is to jump out the fan at the resistor (connect all wires on the resistor to one side, effectively just using the resistor as a junction block, and then replacing the low speed fuse with a 30 amp one (same as the high speed relay)
                  I saved 15% on my Bimmer parts by switching to ...

                    I was thinking the same thing.

                      what abotu replacing the high speed switch to a lower temp?

                      My needle jumps between 1/2 to 3/4 while city driving yet at idle it will calm back down to 1/2...I never hear my high speed fan on although the normal speed works as intended

                      NOTE: I already tested my fan with the key ON...it works, just never comes on

                      NOTE: I also have to keep hitting my cluster to make sure where my needle is bc is starts being wacky with the temp rising and my idle jumps to 1500-2000

                      NOTE: Replaced temp gauge switch and Coolant Temp Sensor...

                      Maybe the Temp Switch (2 prong guy) needs to be replaced?

                        all i did is cut resistor off then rewire back,change fuse 15amp to 30amp and now is running high at all time at low/high temp. Also using e36 lower temp.

                            What do you mean using e36 lower temp?

                              E36 M42 thermoswitch, turns on at 80/88c instead of 90/99c (low/high). normally you wire it so the low temp activates the high speed setting.
