Hey guys, I am about to replace the Fan Control Unit in my 2005 ES Lancer and I was wondering before I do it, if anyone has any ideas on how to stop it from happening again. I have heard of people having to replace it multiple times and I was hoping someone knew how to stop it from being fried.

 

Gold foil tape.

 

Ok, thanks I might give that a try, although the tape seems to be just as if not more expensive than the part its self

 

Check your local part stores. They may have cheaper heat-reflective alternatives.

 

Ok, thanks, I'll have a look next time I'm down there
