This resistor provides low speed operation of the fan, and they have failed on several E36/5's. Unfortunately, BMW wants to sell the entire Bosch fan assembly, not just the resistor. Alternately, I could just jump the connection and have high speed operation whenever low speed is called for. Thanks.

It will return if pulled up, but does not spring back of its own. If I depress and release rapidly it will return. It does not disengage the clutch properly/completely after a moment in the down position, as if the fluid is draining off or back. There is adequate brake fluid. The brake is not affected in any way I can tell. It seems like a hydraulic issue to me? But maybe a new clutch is indicated? Anyone know the specifications of or subsitute for the special tool used to check clutch wear? Suggestions/diagnoses? Thanks. -Gary ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2005 21:06:23 -0400 From: "Gary Derian" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gary" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com> Subject: Re: Clutch problem Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Bleed the clutch hydraulics.
