Well I hope the fans listed above are correct and will work. My rear Wards fan has just about quit. I reached out to LJ via their website regarding parts or repairs with no response, so Ive ordered the one linked above.
They work and they need to be done right. I short cut splicing at the fan and there's not enough room to fit the splice in the housing with out it being tight. So mine grounded out, then I go to take it apart and rip a wire off fan. Tried to soldied it worked for few but most of got something hot in the circuit. So I have one more on order. Will be taking it all apart this time.
My rear Ward's fan would work sometimes and sometimes not. A forum member suggested I change out the connectors before going to the trouble of changing out the fan. He had the same problem and changing the connectors solved his problem. It did the same on mine.
Ok, so my replacement fan has arrived. I have the housing on the bench. On the backside of the housing is a void that looks like it has been filled with some type of compound of unknown origin. The switch and fan connections are underneath it. Has anyone been inside there? Drill it? Heat it? Chip it out? Identical Connections must be under there Reflective heat barrier Another view The failed fan motor was missing the heat barrier
Dig it out, it's silcone. That switch is tough to get in and out. I looped the wires in the holes after cleaning. Then soldered it once in place. I rerouted the wires on the fans so the openings on the circuit board are pointed down, for drainage.

[QUOTE=xcbullet;18162978]Dig it out, it's silcone. That switch is tough to get in and out.[QUOTE]Tough to get out is an understatement. Did you get it out intact or did you cut the wires? Looks to me like theres not enough room in the void to move the switch back far enough for the switch lever to clear the housing.
Holy sch****s !!! I just read the whole thread and found Love Jugs interwebs post as well.... That guy can not beat his drum any louder even if he wanted to.
Just a sad story, and as much as it is true that the "innocent until proven guilty" is part of our foundation, it is hard to believe that Jason was the a-hole in this case.
Funny thing is, I just started looking at buying a set of Love Jugs... NOT ANYMORE!
I have the utmost respect for veterans, both for their service to the country and as a person, as in most cases, vets are people of great honor. But there is the occasional douche who hides his douchebaggery behind his military service. While I still respect them for their service, I will never respect them as a person. In my opinion, one does not invalidate the other...
