1.6L parallel fan mod
How do you do it safely? I searched here and m.net and just about everything i found was for the 1.8. Besides the connecting the fan to the relay which I've read can blow the relay. How else can this be done?

Hmm, when you 'searched' did you use the 'search' button?

I tried that mod and botched it up :nuts:
Both fans would come on then go off, or not come on at all, or one would come on or the other one :eek4: Now I have the main fan wired up to 'aways on' using the test harness in the engine bay. I've tested the relay and it's fine - I tested using the plug on top of the termo and putting it to ground - turns the fan on fine and you can hear the relay clicking. Dunno what's going on with them now :ugh2: |
(PS) Yup it did blow the fuse and I replaced it !

Actually I did come across the Hakuna write up but I wasnt sure if that was the same as jumping from the relay. __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |

You want the ability to switch it back and forth though if you plan on using the AC.

The fans may both go on with the AC running since they're parallel wired at the ECU, no?
What time you starting the tranny project? I am taking a me day on Saturday instead of painting and fixing. Figure I'll get up early as usual, get my coffee and head out your way. BTW, you want the Amsoil crankcase flush before putting that 10w40 in? I am ordering some for myself anyway. |

Prolly get up at 8 or so. I already put the oil in the car, been driving it for the last 2 days. __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |
