The unit on the radiator is a switch for the indicator light on the dash, not a sensor, it is on when too hot, other wise, during normal temperatures, it is off. The one on the head, is for the ECM .

NOTE; If I remember correctly, the sensor has 2 temp sensors in it, each one referenced to ground, I could be wrong on this point, the schematic doesn't show a ground or a second output.

How thick are the electrical wires for the fan? Stock gauge? If so u should see if the wires itself get hot, I plan on redoing my rad fan wiring with 10ga wires and the hot lead will come from altern

Hmmm. I'll have to take a closer look. When I disconnected the rad switch, my faulty temp gauge that had the needle flopping all over the place stopped working completely. My idiot light never did light at all. So I figured that this switch was for the gauge. Either my machine is wired different (possible but not probable) or then the gauge just happened to quit when I disconnected the switch.

Thanks Kinarfi.

Either way, I'll be doing what Lenny suggested - tap another hole at the head.

      Check engine light on Axis Pro 70
      By Ronald
      Check engine light comes on after engine runs continuously for 5 minutes or so.  I can shut down the engine and restart and check engine light goes out, then comes back on after running 5 minutes or so?  What ya think?

      How to wire a C/B into a dual battery set up
      By FGT
      QUESTION: How to wire the C/B into this current dual battery set up.

      EXISTING SITUATION: MAIN Battery is OEM and feeds OEM circuits. Added an AUX Battery in the OEM dual battery location. Connected the AUX - terminal to the MAIN - terminal. Connected the 100A Accessory Fuse Block power cable to the AUX + terminal. Installed a smart isolator between AUX and MAIN batteries where a cable from AUX + goes to the isolator and a cable from isolator to MAIN battery + terminal. Installed separate QD battery tender cables to both AUX and MAIN batteries + and -. The dual battery system appears to work as intended. For this Phase 1 improvement, to avoid having to constantly pull the leads on the AUX + battery post off and put on, for testing or maintenance of Accessory circuits, I wanted a more convenient and safer way to open the circuit from the AUX battery + terminal the Accessory Fuse Block. I called an off road dealership and was told to install a much larger capacity circuit breaker than the 100A rated Fuse Block and was recommended to get a 250A C/B like the one in the pic, which I did. I was told the reason for the C/B high amp rating was two-fold (a) to trip in the event of a battery short circuit and (b) to be able to conveniently open the C/B to kill power to the Accessory Fuse Block without removing leads from the AUX + terminal. The 250A C/B has two posts labelled "BAT LOAD" and "BAT LINE". There are currently three connections to the AUX + post: (1) Accessory Fuse Block power cable, (2) cable to Isolator AUX in terminal, (3) cable from AUX battery charger.
