Standard Ignition Engine Cooling Fan Switch P/N:TS-250
Help your cooling fan switch on when the engine calls for it with the Standard Ignition Engine Cooling Fan Switch, part number TS-247, which is calibrated to signal the fan controller once coolant reaches its set point. It is listed for many models, among them the 2003 Volkswagen Golf, 1984-1985 BMW 318i and 1988-1991 BMW 325iX. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. Standard also lists this part as a coolant fan switch.
The switch reads engine coolant temperature. When its calibrated point is reached, it makes an electrical contact that sends a signal to the fan controller. If a failed fan switch is behind a cooling fan that won't come on, a fan that never shuts off, or temperatures that climb at idle, this part replaces it. Diagnose the cooling system first, because other faults can cause the same signs.

What does an engine cooling fan switch do?
It senses coolant temperature. At its calibrated set point it makes an electrical contact that sends a signal to the fan controller, so the cooling fan can switch on.
What are signs the fan switch may need replacing?
A cooling fan that won't turn on, a fan that runs constantly, or rising temperature at idle can be signs of a faulty switch. Other faults cause them too, so diagnose before replacing.
How is the switch calibrated and tested?
Each thermal switch is calibrated at the factory to make contact at its specified set point. Every unit is also tested to confirm it actuates at its specified temperature.
