Best guess is the thermal sensor has shorted out at the radiator allowing the fan to run constantly. Item #3.Dirt Cheap Yamaha & Polaris OEM Parts & Accessories – Cycle Parts Warehouse You can test the resistance cold and hot,but if it zeros out cold,then it's shot. Plus you might be able to get one at an auto store and not pay 44 bucks for an oem sensor. You can check resistance on the sensor on the head also,but believe this is just for the hot light indicator.Item #1.http://www.cyclepartswarehouse.com/f...2005&fveh=5662
