'89 300 SE, Aux fan always on high
I have done a search and have swapped out the high speed fan relay and replaced the thermo switch to the fan. Fan is still always on high speed.....as soon as I hit the key switch its on. What else could this be? THANKS GUYS!!

I don't think an 89 should have a thermo switch, it has a temp sensor. If your switch is connecting the two pins together normally it will make the ACC control unit think the engine is overheating and run the fans on high. It will also turn off the AC compressor clutch.

What's the part number on it. IIRC the one on my car (which uses the same system) is blue. The reference photos in the factory service manual are kind of hard to make out.
Do you have a multi meter? -J

OK that sensor looks like the right one.
If you unplug the sensor plug and turn on the ignition does the fan come on high speed? I'm wondering if there's a short in the wiring someplace between the sensor and the climate control head. -J
