Cooling Fan control

[Kitlacey]

Hi all,

I’m trying to control a cooling fan with my Tesla SDU system. I’ve set the max temp to 75 but I’d like to turn a fan on over, say, 40 degrees.

I’ve used Zero EV boards in the past, and they had a temp threshold that grounded a pin inside the sdu, which I used to ground a relay and switch on some cooling fans.

I can see on my board that there is an option under “aux pwm” to select tmphs, but it just simply turns the fan on all the time.

Does anyone know how I can program the fan to turn on over a certain temp?

That was a special option in the Zero EV firmware, where the output that normally controlled the dc switch would instead control a fan. I can port it over and attach it here later.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Hey,

Any update on when this might be available to try?
