Hi Don,

With the Outside Temps in Pennsylvania, the 3208 should not get hot
enough to trip the fan temp sensor, Unless you can put a heavy load
on in the foothills. Our 88 FC trips at about 190/195 and quickly
returns to 180/185. Some one may have changed the sensor, the temp
may be stamped on the sensor, But you will probably need to remove it.
The only other way that I am avare of; is to put it is a pot of
water with Ohm meter wires attached, and with another mechanical
thermometer, and gradually raise the temp. This will check the
switching temp.
