larry, your thermal cutoff reminded of something that happened in my coach

it was over 100 degrees. i would walk in the coach to get or do something (it was in my driveway).

i would hear a whirring like a fan running, but i could only isolate it to the front overhead.

there were two whisper fans up in the overhead where the tv and side speakers were. they were hooked to simple bimetal strip thermostats. they were supposed to turn on when the equipment got hot i guess.

but....half of the year or more in phoenix, the inside temp was hot enough to turn them on. since i replaced all the electronics up there the heat was much less, so i just disconnected them at the thermostat.
