Great job one tip on soldering, make a mechanical strong joint first, comes from my apprentice days in the uk, having to learn to solder to old post office telephone methods. But I also live in NZ now. Thanks for all the vids, really enjoy them.
Andy, do hope you see this and will be able to advise. My old fan has a small rubber hose. Would it be ok to install a new fan that doesn’t have this hose on it. I don’t see anything like this old fan with a hose on your channels? The fan came off an old Yamaha 4wheeler . Thanks so much, Ronnie from far off Texas . 6:53 o
Hi Ronnie, thanks for your comment. The hose is a breather hose that Yamaha have on many of their electric cooling fans. However, they often allow moisture into the motor so its actually a good idea to fit a sealed motor when replacing. Hope this helps. All the best. Andy
I got a 98 grizzly 600 yfm my fan stoped working on it it will not come on by it sealf so I ran a wire to the hot and grond to see if the fan is good or not and it did come on but do you no y it will not come on by it sealf because I don't no w to do
25 soca? what do you mean? I think the standard fuse is a 10 amp from memory but could be wrong. The fans do suffer from moisture ingress so check the bearings & check continuity as you rotate the armature. Cheers Andy
Sorry spell check . The fan fuse is 25 so can I use a fan that pull 12.5? I tested the original fan I put Direct power with a power probe in the fan would not engage until I spun the blades with my hands. Now my fan turns on when it reaches the temperature but the Viking is still getting hot. Do you thinkThe fan he’s too weak to cool down. Thank you so much for all your videos.
Can a fan be running weak/slow? Or does it either work or not? Mine seems really weak but it's still turning. My c2h warning light came on and I had to shut it down to cool off.
Hi Damien, thanks for your message. Yes, they ship all over the World & some viewers from the US have already ordered & received mugs already. Hope this is of help Cheers Andy

You'll need to check the circuit & thermo switch
See if you can get hold of a wiring diagram
Cheers

Was that for a Viking? The fan fuse on my Viking is 25 soca 12.5 amp would be fine ?

yes, fan motor is dead. Internal corrosion likely - you'll need to change it
@@AndyMechanic thank you for responding have a great night
