We decided that since it was Friday the 24th we should go home a little bit early, like 1:00 PM. Beer Thirty!
The El Camino fan switch was acting up so the contact cleaner helped but that old switch was shot. I had to dig through the records. The OEM switch was replaced 15 years ago. That replacement switch only lasted 15 years and 149,000 miles. It cost me $9.50 to replace it and about 20 minutes of taking my time to remove and replace. The only pain in the butt part was getting the screw that holds the switch in place out. A 1/4 inch socket, short extension and ratchet and tongue held to the upper left got the screw out, swap the switch and new switch installed easily. It is so nice to go to my tool box and just pick a tool to use.
The replacement switch replaced 15 years ago cost me .00006376 per mile or just over 6 cents every 1,000 miles. I am at 352,000 so if the new switch goes only 100,000 miles it will be a while, I hope.
I suspect every part on the Macan will be just a little bit more.
