Check Ken Wilford's site (vanagain.com) for a trouble shooting procedure for
the fan switch.  The fan in my '85 comes on so seldom that it usually
startles me.    A couple years ago I was stuck in Rod Run traffic in Pidgeon
Forge and the fan kept kicking in.  Checking my Digitool I noticed that the
fan kicked in when the Temp II reading hit .5 and shut off when it went to
.7.  Since I replaced the coolant, water pump and thermostat (routine
maintenance no problems) it doesn't get to the LED except when I'm stuck in
traffic for a long, long time.
