Oddly enough, I installed a direct switch to the fan, Its not working either. I will have to investigate my installed switch this weekend. I still aim to change the sensor to ensure a fail safe.

Hey Mike,
Here's the link to the switch I got: af1racing.com/store/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=65748
Hope it solves your problem!
For my Eldorado I got a dipstick with temp guage from the bikahaulics group in England,
its about 12.00 its plug and play.
BUT it has a red warning area and thats at 110C right where the Guzzi runs in stop and go with ambient temps of 85F.;
while cruising on the freeway it will run at 80C ,
and in hot stop and go with more stop it will run at 130C

Check that you haven't got some tar and stones thrown up into the fan. These horrible little critters stopped the fan on my bike once.
FYI...Neither one of my 1400s fan have worked...or if they did I could not hear them...

Likewise...cant say I have ever heard it and did not come on after a 25 mile spirited ride as a test.
Like others will probably just set up a switch to manually to turn it on.
BTW...which is the "HOT" inlet side of the cooler the right or the left?? Would love to set up a small oil temp gauge off the inlet side.
Great idea!
I've had my Eldo nearly two years and 25,000 kms, last sunday I stopped for fuel after a long slow trip through traffic, turned the bike back on and heard an unusual noise which turned out to be the fan working, first time I have ever heard it. It's not loud and there's no way you would hear it with the motor running.
Mine has quit as well (can't say I have ever heard it?). Only now I get the SERVICE light with red triangle. It clears after restart and is intermittent thereafter. Took it to the dealer and diagnosed Engine Temp. Checked the fan, works fine. Ordered the Thermoelectric switch, backordered for up to 2 months! I would love to do what you did. Can you provide more details when you can? Thanks!!
Me too!!!
If you get tired of waiting, I can have one in 7~10 business days or less. I can put it on the online STORE linked at the top of the page if interested. Ping me direct email if so; info @GuzziTech.com
Appreciate it, I installed a switch I use in stop and go or slow. I’ll run it after a hot ride for a bit as well. I like being able to use it when I think it needs it! Lost faith in the Thermetrics.
I have one in stock, and added it to the STORE tab above and direct here;
