Sorry for the delay.... I had to prepare for the trip to Ann Arbor, MI for my son's graduation on April 26. It is the U. of MI (GO BLUE). Any alumni from the wolverines? He's a EE major. Ever thought of 12,000 plus graduate at the same time (B, M and PhD). The last time I did it was 6,000 at U. of WI (about 30 yrs ago).
The temperature switch was faulty as it should have turn the fan between 90 and 100. It did not and hence it runs hot. Peter was right on. Thanks.
