ac delete , cooling fan functions

im deleting the a/c in my car,removing all unwanted wires, it says in the book,that the pressure switch on the ac comp,will ground when pressurizes,connecting the ground in the cooling fan relay,starting it, and then turning it off when pressure lowers , and they say to delete that,tu just ground that wire with common grounds like factory does when not a/c equipped,,,,isnt that going to activate the cooling fan permanently? do i leave the pin in the plugg in and just ground the other end? my brain tells me to unhook and discard,but instruction book tells me to leave there and ground,if its true ,how is it done exactly,and whats gonna keep the cooling fan from being on at all time?please someone explain me how this really works

'88+, leave the ground open. '87-older, the wire has to be grounded to keep the fan(s) from running full time.
