ezCAN On/off control of police fan fitted to BMW 2010 R1200RT

[katarapkokid]

I have an ezCAN which I am trying to use to power and control a retro fitted police oil cooler fan to my R1200RT.

Currently I am using John at tinderboxarts setup shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIlFzUg_cPU

The control is done via the ezCAN as a light circuit, with a long press of the info button initiating subsequent presses adding 10% power to the fan.

Pressing 11 times to get the fan at full power is way too fiddly and distracting to be done out in traffic and I would prefer a simple toggle on/off mechanism.

Is there any alternative that anyone might recommend (e.g. is the turn signal cancel button usable?)

(My wish is to have it controlled by engine temperature but ....)

Many thanks.

Hi Katarapkokid

Thank you for reaching out. We've got a HEX ezSwitch coming out shortly, I'd suggest signing up to our newsletter:
https://www.hexezcan.com/

This will be a handlebar attachment that you can configure to control one of your light sets. For example, if you want the fan on at maximum whenever you toggle it, you can configure the aux lights output as 100% brightness on low and high beam with no features enabled. Then, when you're ready to turn the fan on, simply press this switch to toggle it on/off.

Kind regards and safe travels
