I will retest, but i sort of checked the fans after i did the system flush, to at least make sure they turned on. Once the temp guage rises to 1/2 on the indicator, both fans kick in (even without the A/C on). I don't know if this is "stock" on an '86 900s but perhaps the previous owner wired it this way, as the previous owner is pretty knowlegable about cars and Saabs in particular.
Do you think maybe the fans aren't moving fast enough to cool the fluid in the radiator, or just replacing the switch may solve the problem?
Something i did notice is that if the car is hot and i shut if off, the fan would continue to cycle as i walked away from the car. The other day i knew the car was hot as the guage was over 3/4, but when i shut the car off i did NOT hear the fan continue to run.
