Does it have some kind of controller that “reads” the signal from the temp sender? I wonder if it would be a simple thing to connect it to the EBL fuel injection brain.

This electrically operated fan clutch is proactive. Because of the temp sensors that are in the engine block. Thus getting a head start on the up coming hot heat loads that will be entering the radiator for cooling. The fan is larger then stock. It's from a Mercedes Benz. The electric fan clutch is from a GM truck. There's a dash light that tells you when it's on. Plus. You can turn it on yourself if desired. I thought that for all that's involved. I think it's fairly cheep at just over $400. Bob Dunahugh
