Author Message   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 02:45 pm:        Damn, I think I jinxed us. The other day I said to myself, "Hmm it is August, yet there hasn't been a dead fan thread since last fall." Perhaps you guys don't want to know was thinking about after.   Mike_dinger Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 02:51 pm:        Frog, don't sweat it. At least they're on backorder.   Scottykrein Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 06:09 pm:        http://www.lshd1.com/servlet/Categories Search for Y0050.02A8A They were in stock last week.

I just got home from work, and the fan on my SS now sounds like a blender full of rocks! Leave me, for i shall go bash my head into the wall now...   Mike_dinger Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 06:55 pm:        CRAP! Make it stop! Will WD-40 help?   Greenamp Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 07:03 pm:        Mine is starting to sound like a rock in a blender too. How hard are these things to change out? Doesn't look too complicated.   Florida_lime Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 07:19 pm:        My Uly is in the shop right now for blowing the fan fuse when the fan tries to start up. The first time this happened (at 12,500 miles), the fan was declared dead, and replaced. Neither fan ever made any unusual noises before it started having problems, but I always hear the "rock in a blender" analogy.   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 07:28 pm:        Lime, sounds like your bike is having an electrical gremlin, its possible the fan was fine all along. If your fan was on the way out, you WILL know it.   Scottykrein Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 07:57 pm:        Mine made the most pitiful sound when it was ready to die. Only took about 45 minutes to swap it out.   Florida_lime Posted on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 - 08:36 pm:        Froggy, The dealers tests showed the fan was faulty, and replacing it DID fix the problem. At least for 8,000 miles.
