Reply to "Installing fan relay"

Dennis Gacutan (Guest)

Well, my relay idea lasted about 15 minutes. I took it out for a test drive and when the car got up to temp. I through the switch and the car shut down! The gauges (cyberdyne) and the gen light would not come on, but the engine would crank. So I'm not sure what's up. I managed to get the car home...with a giggle of the ignition switch the gen and gauge lights came on and it fired.. got it home but as I pulled into the driveway bam...the ignition shut off.

I'll start looking at the ignition switch itself, but I think I have a problem with the load on the ignition circuit when the electric fans come on. My gauges would read odd values and blink when both electric fans were running. That's why I tried to add the relay to the aux electric fan controlled by a switch on the instrument panel.

Can anyone comment on this? I understand I should use relays to move the load of the fans off the circuit, can someone give me the site on how to do this?

Thanks.
