Hi Dave,

 

Did you replace the temp sensor?

Wrenches,

 

We recently swapped in a new internal fan on a OB FX 2524T after the original fan stopped working on the 6 yr old inverter. 

 

Now the new internal fan is running all the time. Unrelated to temperature (Air, Fet and Cap temps all good). I've tried removing all loads from the inverter and also resetting the inverter (off/on). 

 

OutBack tech support says the control board is the most likely cause of this problem and that I should buy a new board and swap that in. Or, as another option he said I could let the fan continue to run 24/7.

 

Any advice?

 

Thanks,

Dave
