Hi

Need some help!!

1975 3000M with a SPAL twin fan set up installed around 15 years ago by previous owner. No apparent electrical override switch currently wired up.

I need to establish whether both or either fan is working.

Am I right in assumming the fans are controllled by the otter switch and this simply opens / closes when hot thus making the electrical circuit by connecting to earth? If I'm right then if I disconnect the incoming cable to the otter switch and earth it directly then the fans should come on or is it more complex than that?confused

All help and advice appreciated
