Re: Fan light and High Temp light
Bob, I believe that if you’d have done that in “mph” vs “ kph” it would have been fine 

,, something to do with the conversion factor I think

Re: Fan light and High Temp light
My '83 has a KM/h speedometer, speed limits have been posted in Km/h since before I got my license and I'm not into nostalgia enough to convert to miles.
On secondary highways with 80 Km/h speed limits at night the light starts glowing just before I reach the speed limit.

Re: Fan light and High Temp light
BTW, this is why you do not want to manually turn on your fan on the highway. Fan on can drop the fan voltage from 18V of free spinning down to 15V, and the fan then slows down and creates more aero drag.

Re: Fan light and High Temp light
Maybe so but it was nice to have the option when the thermoswitch failed on a very hot day.
