What about the four speed engines? I don't have that on mine?Its in the valley of the engine near the injection pump and throttle cable area. It has a little white plastic wheel that is part of the switch.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!

Just like they taught us in driving school....floor the accelerator prior to entering deep water. It will stop the fan. But that was in the 3 Spds.Little switch on IP pump is two fold. On the 3 speed transmissions (I don't have experience with 4 speed rigs) it controls the kick-down solenoid AND triggers the TDM to DISengage the fan to go for a swim.
Should give you about 20 seconds to get wet before comes fan back on.... IF the engine is above 190 ish ++ and fan temperature switch (in water crossover) is working properly.
(Note) fan temp switch is an OPEN switch when 220 ish hot or fan is running. Closes at 190 ish and below so fan should be off. This is the only switch that cycles fan on and off while happily going down the road.
OR
The kick-down switch (side of IP) triggers (momentary 24 volt pulse) to start the TDM to begin the 20 second +/- swim feature applying power to the Cadillac valve which disengages fan even if the engine is hot, overriding the temp switch. Confusing as heck, but it works.
To pass grand-ma, the kick-down switch needs to be fully engaged, peddle to the metal to HOLD the solenoid engaged on the valve body in the transmission. Added bonus TDM get the trigger pulse too and off you go with a little more HP. All things working properly of course.
Those kick-down switches do go bad or could be out of adjustment. Pull one of the wires to it to check if fan STILL follows throttle position.
Does the transmission down shift correctly at peddle to the metal?
Question for you. Have you been reading the little book? >https://hummerhuren.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/hmmwv_test-diagnostics.pdf
Taking a survey to better serve, CAMO
An after thought... saw a picture posted a couple weeks back with a new fan temp switch that looked like a knockoff. SS was having fan issues. Just wondering here. You can set you clock by the humv posts. FAN problems in the summer. Start boxes in the winter.
In the 4-speed trucks, the time delay switch is relocated to the rear of the engine valley. As far as I heard, it no longer activates transmission kickdown, that is done by the TCM in conjunction with the throttle position sensor.What about the four speed engines? I don't have that on mine?
it’s on the rear of the engine on A2 4 speed trucks, it’s on the left side of the injector pump for turbo trucks.In the 4-speed trucks, the time delay switch is relocated to the rear of the engine valley.

I'm having the same issue. At high rpm's the fan engages then disengages when I let off on the pedal. Thermal switch is good, Cadillac valve resistance checked good. The fan clutch engages/disengages when I disconnect/reconnect TDM. Were you able to fix your issue? Any info would be much appreciated!I'm at a loss My humvee 94 6.2L if I Rev the engine up the clutch fan engages. And a get a huge air leak burst sound. No oil leaks what's so ever. It's clearly not temperature induced. I can start it cold and it will immediately do it from revs. Not sure where to look to find anything on the subject previously. Sorry I'm new.
