Re: Fan fuse question

Probably not as there is only one terminal for it.

OK, is this this the '85, TPI or carb? Isn't the fuse down two from that location also labeled "FAN?" That is typically for the fan relay coil power, not actual power to the fan. Which the actual fan motor power typically comes from a fusible link.

Re: Fan fuse question

Here is the fan wiring, the relay is mounted to the radiator support (passenger side?).
