[DML] Re: Cooling Fans

["funkstuf" <funkstuf@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

That could be a number of things.
I've had several otterstats go bad and cause a similar problem.
Also, depends on if you have any of the "fan fail" modifications.
If you do you need to be very careful because fans sticking on my be 
due to a failure of the "fan fail" circuit relays.  This is 
dangerous, it happened to me and the wires melted and could have 
caused a fire.  I'll let the technical experts tell you all the 
testing methods but I would definetely isolate this because 
continuous current in the wrong place can overheat the wires but not 
necessarily blow the fuse.  (personal experience)

the fans kick on and stay on.  Evey once and a while it will turn off

periodically turns on and off when cooling is needed.
