Help your electric cooling fan switch on when the engine needs it with this Four Seasons switch, part number 36533, a radiator-mounted cooling fan temperature switch that senses coolant temperature and helps control when the fan runs. It fits many Volvo models, among them the 1981-1984 Volvo 242, 1981-1984 Volvo 244 and 1981-1984 Volvo 245, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
- Brass construction: the brass body is used for accurate temperature sensing.
- Zinc-coated terminal: the terminal has a zinc coating to resist corrosion.
- Sealing parts included: comes with the gaskets, O-rings or seals needed to replace the original switch properly.
- Vehicle-specific: made for vehicle-specific applications.
Four Seasons engineers and tests its products for years of trouble-free operation, and brings more than 50 years of mobile A/C experience to its product line.
Signs this part may need replacing include a cooling fan that won't come on, a fan that runs all the time, rising temperature at idle or in slow traffic, or coolant seeping around the switch. Wiring, relays and the fan motor can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. If the switch is at fault, this unit replaces it.
