Fantastic Fan Temp Sensor Isues
The temperature sensor is out of calibration or something. It will only turn the fan off if the temp is cool, and that is with the temp dial almost all the way to the coldest setting (in the blue). It used to work perfect. On a hot day I cannot turn the dial enough to get it to turn the fan off.
Is there an adjustment?
The temp probe is in the correct location, unmoved, in the airflow.
Also, bonus question...
The fan has 3 speeds. High speed is full amount of power to the fan, the other two speeds have the 12 volts pass through a heating element first to burn off some of the power so the fan gets less power thus turns slower. A small heating coil for medium speed and a bigger heating coil/element for the slow speed.
So, on any speed the fan must be using the same amount of power? Is the high speed is most efficient at moving air? OR do the slower speeds use even more power than high speed since they are heating the coil as well?
