Re: chicken switch
You need a very good high amp relay that will bridge out the switch look on a wiring diagram and it will come clear, I did mine onto the 2nd speed (fastest)

Re: chicken switch
I just got a thermo swtch that comes on first speed at a lower temp.
Remember this...
the radiator temp is NOT indicated on the gauge.
If the engine cooling has a problem fitting a switch ain't gonna help
if there is a problem with the first speed not working fix it dont bodge it
