RE: [DML] Fan Speed Overload

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Craig, 
The 2 higher speeds 3 & 4 the blower motor uses the CB not a fuse. It will
do this because of the current draw of the blower motor. If you replace the
blower motor with a new one and up the CB to 30 amps as in my relay kit that
will prolong the problem.

Subject: [DML] Fan Speed Overload

I have replaced all fuses and relays at the fuse block with new ones.  
I have replaced my fan motor and speed control resistor array.  The fan 
works great at all speeds, in all modes.  The one issue I'm finding is 
that when I run the fan on high (#4), after about 5 minutes, it shuts 
off.  It remains off for about 3 minutes and comes back on again.  It 
will then run for about 5 minutes and quit again.  It seems as though 
there's an overload breaker that cuts it out and when it cools, fires 
back up again.  It only does it on high speed.  On any lower speed it 
will run continuously all day.

Ideas?
