Solved our Stuck Fan Relay Issue!

[Jesster72]

So, on day one of our trip, the fan relay stuck on. It happened once in Custer State Park last year, I did the tapity-tap thing, and all was good. A few days ago in Branson, the relay stuck on again, and no amount of coercion would get it to release. I pulled the relay and off to O’Reilly’s. Pictures are of the relay they matched for me. $35. Back on our way, and fans are cycling as they should.

I’m sure other auto parts stores will have it, but they were closest for us.

Just wondering if we here in the USA can buy anything not made in China?

In case you don't read Chinese yet, it is: are you kidding ???

Local craft fairs, to start.

Where is this relay located? Thinking about buying one for “just in case”….TIA

I think it would be good for more than the S2S models. I will post a picture of the dead relay later this week - I kept it for reference as well. That way if it happens to others, they know if the part I found will work for them or not.

Hey Mike! It was great meeting you and talking. How is that sway bar treating you? Funny thing, when I pulled up, they were going to put that bar on my bike... I had to tell them to stop and light mine up instead... I'm sure an Ultra Bar is in my future, I just have to wait for the credit card to cool down LOL.

The relay is in the right fuse bank - which is the right side as you are sitting on the bike.

Bar is a definite improvement. You would benefit riding 2 up and pulling the trailer. No doubt about it.

It would be more helpful to have a picture of the actual relay, its dimensions, it’s location and terminal view than just a part number.
