Unfamiliar radiator/temperature sensor in 740

I saw a through the radiator fan switch on an older BMW at a recent car show. I had actually forgotten about that until you mentioned it. It's probably the better way for me to go.

Relieving the stress on the battery/alternator as well as prolonging the life of the fan are the main reasons for the toggle switch. I have found that the fan is not all that necessary unless I am sitting in traffic for a long time or on hot days at the traffic light to keep the A/C cool. I only activate the toggle switch when I'm stopped. Otherwise, it's off.
