GNX fan switch ever see this?

[Evaddave 87gn]

Has anyone ever seen one of these? It appears to be a switch that opens a circut once the car is in motion and air is forced into the grill.

Looks aftermarket to me.

a.t.r. old school

You have the answer right there in the second and third pictures...It was a kit sold by Applied Technologies which stopped the fan via the grille-mounted "paddle switch" at speeds over 35 mph (not 100% sure) approximately. I know because I used to have one like that...worked good, but now kinda "old school". Oh yeah...it has nothing to do with a GNX, meaning that it's not a GNX-specific part. ATR sold the kit to be installed on any turbo-Buick...

hope this clears it up a bit...

It's currently on a GNX. This will be removed and stuck on a shelf. Thanks guys. I knew some body would know what this was.

Got one on my GN and it still works like a charm. Old school for sure but haven't found a good enough reason to shelve it yet...
