Wiring Coolant Fan Relays with No ECU
Wiring Coolant Fan Relays with No ECU
92 RS with Old carbed engine, Looks like I have 2 coolant fan relays ( from what the wiring diagram shows ) and Im installing a dual fan setup. Question is, What wires do I need to run to hot or ground and will the stock relays work by just having a one wire coolant temp switch on the manifold. I didn't really understand how the fans kick on at a certain temperature without using a whole relay kit with adjustable settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Either use manual on/off switches where the wires go to the ECM or use a temp switch like this. (except these aren't available anymore)

Re: Wiring Coolant Fan Relays with No ECU
Take a look at the diagram concerning your car in this link.
You will need to scroll down.
This diagram will tell you what color wire coming off the relay does and where it goes. = http://www.autozone.com/repairinfo/r...96b43f80386616
If the car came with two stock fans and the circuits are ok you can simply install the fans using the existing circuits/wiring.

The computer grounds the circuit to turn on the relay. Don't run power to it 🤓

Wire 335 and 473 are ground triggers. NOT power.

or a simple ground switch replaces the ECM grounding control

12v constant should go to battery
The other is a switched 12v source, like a ign fuse.
