    I'm not sure how hot your bike runs, but the wifes 3rd gen is crazy hot. I ended up running it constant, is that an option for you?

    check fuse socket 2 to ground with a voltmeter with ignition on ,you could make a jumper to the fan motor case and on the right side front coil lower mounting hole there is a ring terminal with 2 green wires ,,thats a good ground spot,,,the ground ring terminal thats part of the fan motor harness goes too the left side fan motor mounting bolt ,,
    regards rail
