Just curious, any one ever had trouble with there fan switch , seems mine does good and when it seem to run a while it cuts off(to low). You can wiggle the stem and it may come back on high .Its the original switch and wondering if it a pita to change out . Doing a search advance , rock auto I see there a few different brands .Thanks TR

Not a common problem, but I guess they can wear out.

Every Dodge that I have had the privilege of using has had this problem. Then when replacing them the aftermarket switches are just as unreliable.

If I have a problem with my Ford I will put a good used switch on it.
