Always looking to keep under the bonnet cooler, hence the discussions on manifold wrapping & ceramic coating

If the fan kicks in when the two wires are connected, the system is fine, it also proves imho that the replacement otter switch is faulty.
Or there's a big airlock so the otter switch isn't getting hot.

Or the coolant is not circulating.
