For something that is simply a 3 speed fan, it's a pretty complicated circuit..

Perhaps when the 4 feet of snow on top of my car melt i'll continue.

I know what you're saying, I had to remove my evaporator and stock box so my "climate control" is hosed and the fan is slow at best.
I wish that I WAS one of the 95% that you mentioned earlier with the wax though, my car doesn't get comments until I flip the hood

Hmm when you said you were going to post more I thought you ment actually answering questions. That is what the forum is for sharing answers for all to see and evaluate. Got an answer?

I think that the "she" threw things off, it got me. The avatar doesn't match the gender of the OP.

In any case with the attitude of the OP I don't think that she would get much help anyhoo so the "hit and run" is probably her way of punishing us all

Yeah, and I wasn't sure if you were talking about the OP or me; I was wondering when I became a she. I'm a little slow sometimes.
