HD 3speed transmissions just finally got their first silenoid 1 or two years before that. You quit before cars needed diagnosing. Since they were pretty much still good for 5 years back then Wouldnt you say? I know because about exactly the same year I got out of it professionally. But I got out because the already underrated and underpaid proffession of an auto mechanic about to start a x100 more decline down the worlds steepest railroad incline

I mean before that they were all stuck pvc valve cam sensor fuel pump or sparkplugs and all three of them took 10sec at idle and step on the gas ¼ inch to diagnose or faster if it just didnt start. Outside of the obvious waterpump electric fan oil seals

It would be interesting to know what that other shop told their customer. Did they quietly put in another fan and then told the customer "Yep, the new TIPM fixed the problem"?

I guess if this weren't a free warranty fix, you could connect a 1k resistor from the red B+ wire over to the PWM control wire of the fan(basically emulating Eric's test light), to act as a pull up, and the system would work again as factory pretty much... seems like just one internal connection/solder trace/joint is broken for the PWM pullup part... pity the fan will go to landfill over 1mm of copper connection...
