Fan motor switch replacement???

Post by jwldane »

Hi,

I am in the process of building a custom dash and would like to move the fan motor switch using and aftermarket LED switch. I have searched the forums but was not able to find a description on the switch type used by Fiat. Can anyone tell me if this is a spst, spdt, dpdt or some other switch type.

Another project is to separate the headlights from the running/parking lights switch. Mine all come on together. Anyone have an easy explanation or diagram on how to accomplish this.

Thank you all in advance.....
John

You will need a single pole double throw (SPDT) On-On switch.

Some will refer to it as an three position on/off/on switch. An on/on switch will not have a central off position. Take the old switch with you as a reminder when shopping for a replacement that its a three position switch.

DieselSpider is correct, I forgot to include the middle off position. :oops:

Thanks guys....

Switch ordered.

I'll be posting pics when the dash is complete. Re-engineering the defroster system right now and waiting for other parts.
