Erm...mphm...uh huh...uh...did you have this before? Well you have it again. Temp gauge reading low? Is the fuel gauge correct? If not, no doubt bad voltage regulator on the panel -- it supplies fuel and temp gauge. Should be 10.0 +/- 0.5 volts input to the gauges. Fan ought not to be coming on with needle at LED. Temp gauge reading ok? Thermoswitch out of whack (activating too early)? Changed after turning A/C on and off --- arrggghhhhh. Suggest sorting out the A/C fan wiring diagram in Bentley and seeing what's common to the A/C and thermal activation. If you need help yell, but I have v. limited time just now. david -- David Beierl - Providence, RI http://pws.prserv.net/synergy/Vanagon/ '84 Westy "Dutiful Passage" '85 GL "Poor Relation"
