DELPHI Temperature Switch, Radiator Fan TS10320
The TS10320 is a precision-engineered temperature switch designed to control the operation of a vehicle’s radiator fan. It ensures optimal engine cooling by activating the fan when coolant temperatures rise above a predetermined threshold and deactivating it once temperatures fall back within safe limits.
Key Functional Features
- Automatic Fan Control: Monitors coolant temperature continuously, turning the radiator fan on or off as needed.
- Dual-Poles Design: Provides reliable electrical contact for both high and low voltage circuits commonly found in modern automotive systems.
- Wide Temperature Range: Operates effectively across a broad spectrum of engine temperatures, accommodating various driving conditions.
- Compact Rectangular Housing: Fits seamlessly into tight engine bay spaces without requiring extensive modifications.

Installation Guide
- Disconnect the Battery: For safety, remove the negative terminal before working on electrical components.
- Locate Existing Switch: Identify the current temperature switch or fan control module in the engine bay.
- Remove Old Component: Unscrew mounting brackets and disconnect wiring harnesses carefully.
- Mount TS10320: Align the bracket holes with the engine bay mounting points, secure with screws provided.
- Connect Wiring: Attach the two‑pole terminals to the corresponding fan control circuit. Ensure polarity matches the original wiring diagram.
- Re‑connect Battery and Test: Restore the battery connection and start the engine. Observe fan operation as coolant temperature rises; verify that the fan turns off when temperatures normalize.
Benefits of Using TS10320
- Enhanced Engine Longevity: By preventing overheating, the switch protects critical engine components from thermal stress.
- Improved Fuel Efficiency: The fan operates only when necessary, reducing parasitic power draw and improving overall vehicle efficiency.
- Reliability: Built with high‑quality materials to withstand harsh automotive environments for extended service life.
- Ease of Replacement: Designed as an OEM replacement, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for custom modifications.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Recommended Action |
|---|---|---|
| Fan never turns on. | Incorrect wiring or faulty contacts. | Verify connections, test with a multimeter for continuity. |
| Fan runs continuously. | Temperature sensor misreading or switch setpoint too low. | Check coolant temperature gauge; adjust setpoint if adjustable. |
| Intermittent fan operation. | Loose mounting or vibration damage. | Tighten screws, inspect for physical damage. |
Maintenance Tips
- Inspect the switch housing periodically for cracks or wear; replace if damaged.
- Ensure wiring insulation remains intact to prevent short circuits.
- Keep the surrounding area clean from oil, coolant leaks, and debris that could affect sensor accuracy.
Conclusion
The DELPHI Temperature Switch, Radiator Fan TS10320 is a critical component for maintaining optimal engine temperature across a broad spectrum of Volkswagen Group vehicles. Its robust design, precise control capabilities, and straightforward installation make it an indispensable part of any vehicle’s cooling system.
