FAQs

What is the default set temperature?

The controller is set by default to 85°C (185°F).

Can I use this controller with any electric water pump and fan?

It is designed specifically for Davies Craig EWPs and electric fans. Compatibility with other brands should be verified based on voltage and control requirements.

How long does the fan and pump run after the engine is shut off?

The controller will operate the EWP and fan for up to 3 minutes after the ignition is turned off to help dissipate heat.

What does the flashing EWP logo on the screen mean?

The flashing EWP logo indicates that the pump is operating in Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode, actively adjusting its speed to provide the required coolant flow.

How do I adjust the target temperature?

Temperature parameters are adjusted using the simple push-button system on the controller.

What happens if the battery is disconnected?

The set temperature and other parameters are stored in the unit's memory and will be recalled when the battery is reconnected.

Does this unit come with a fitting kit?

No, this model (8102) is sold as a standalone controller and does not include a fitting kit. A separate fitting kit may be required for installation.

Troubleshooting

Controller does not power on

Verify all wiring connections are secure and correctly made to the vehicle's power source. Check the vehicle's fuse for the circuit.

EWP or fan not operating

Check the wiring connections between the controller and the EWP/fan. Ensure the EWP and fan are compatible and functioning independently. Check for EWP errors indicated on the LCD screen.

Temperature readings are inaccurate

Ensure the temperature sensor is correctly installed in the coolant hose and making good contact. Check the sensor wiring for damage or loose connections. Look for a temperature sensor error on the LCD.

Overheating issues persist

Confirm the EWP and fan are operating correctly and the system is properly bled of air. Ensure the set temperature is appropriate for your engine and driving conditions. Check for any coolant leaks or blockages in the cooling system.

Controller displays a voltage warning

Check the vehicle's battery voltage and alternator output. Ensure the controller is receiving a stable voltage within its operating range.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This controller is designed to work with a Davies Craig Electric Water Pump (EWP) and an electric cooling fan. It requires wiring into your vehicle's electrical system and connecting the included temperature sensor, typically placed in a coolant hose. Setting your desired temperature is done via simple push buttons. The controller comes with multiple mounting options (bracket, nylon plate, Velcro pad) to suit different installation locations.

Compatibility: The controller is compatible with Davies Craig EWPs and most aftermarket electric cooling fans. Ensure your EWP and fan are designed for the voltage output of the controller. This unit requires a separate fitting kit if you do not already have one.

Care: Keep the controller and its connections clean and dry. Periodically check wiring for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure the temperature sensor is securely fitted and free from obstructions. Clean the LCD screen with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
