Is it an on/off or momentary contact switch?
In the mid '80's I bought a radiator fan kit from Pantera Performance that came with a momentary contact switch. It would turn the overkill fans off when you depressed it. It seems the fans drew tons of current. The switch disabled the fans during a hot start so you had 100% of battery power available to start the car.
