Title: C-19 tender fan ??
Post by: Fred2179 on October 09, 2026, 12:58:56 PM
The C-19 I've been working on has a large fan in the back of the tender. I've never seen it running. Does it get triggered by some heat sensing circuit?
Anyone removed the fan and replaced it with a smaller one?

The fan was there to cool the electronics, per Bachmann... but sometimes it is installed backwards and blows in a direction that does not help cooling.

Most people toss it.
