I get asked about this alot, so I though I'd post them up here. these are some ideas for wiring e-fans. these diagrams are somewhat specific to my setup which is a 2 speed 18" mark VIII fan wired to be controlled through the PCM, with a LED indicator, and high speed override switch. there are many MANY ways to do it, these are just some drawings I made up when I was working on mine.
simple 2 relay setup:
3 relay setup:
these are for e-fans that are PCM controlled, and the PCM pinouts are for a 12200411 (aka '411') PCM, and this system is ground controlled (i.e. the PCM will complete a ground to the high or low speed wire to activate the fan in that specific speed) so if you're running a different PCM, or using some kind of aftermarket controller, you'll need to check that out if you want to use these wiring diagrams
next - I did not draw in the fuses, you should ALWAYS fuse any power supply wire, and it needs to be fused according to your setup. IIRC mine is fused at either 10A or 20A on the switched power supply, and I think 50A or 60A on the constant line (this is specific for my Mark VIII fan setup, which can pull alot on startup, so you may not want to fuse things that high on yours.)
the manual over-ride switch, LED indicators, and Diodes are all optional. so if you want to simplify things, those are not required for this diagram to work.
hope that helps someone. feel free to ask questions.
