thanks. I tried two wires running from the fan motor in the passenger side fire wall, but they were constant power with the ignition on, and the wires on the ac clutch but they were only on seconds at a time as was the ac clutch. I removed my center dash to try and follow the wires from the ac **** but can't trace it all. Electrical was always my least favorite and i very easily lose common sense over it.

Well I was out four wheeling again and stopped on a steep hill and the temp gauge ran hot again and I got the "check gauges" light. I didn't let it set this time, but I drove over the top of the hill and as soon as I leveled out it cooled off, almost instantaneously, and the light cleared. I kept four wheeling and it never happened again while driving, ONLY when I stopped on an incline. What the heck is the deal?!
