[urq] minor electrical gremlins

[Thatcher Hubbard]

   I had fan problems that I at first thought to be the fan itself.  It 
would NOT work if I jumpered the switch though.  Turns out it was on 
the back of the fuse box.  The wiring was such a bird's nest (I have an 
'83, fusebox under dash) that I was getting a short at those block 
connectors.  I move the relay block for the fans further to the left of 
the car.
   I may have misunderstood what you said, but could it just be the 
switch itself?
