Bypass the relay and be done with it.

Now back to the Duracool charging questions.......

Done

Using the original ground connection to hold it up and will add a second support to the other relay screw to keep it from swinging in the breeze.

Pulled the motor and aside from some dirt inside the motor (banged the 'hamster wheel' carefully several times on a towel and got a fair amount of fine dust out of the motor itself as well as took an old toothbrush to the fins.) The wheel turns pretty easily. How freely should it spin? If I gave it a good turn, should it stop within about a single revolution or should it go for a couple of turns or more?

Any other cleaning? Take the air compressor to it and blow any loose crud out? I'll pop the front motor casing off the heater/evaporator housing and clear that out while I'm at it.

And restart the Duracool saga tomorrow. I suspect a leak, so it may be a short morning.

Thanks to all for the help with the blower.
