Default Fan Switch Hook Up

I am wanting to hook up a fan control switch inside my Z and was wondering how to go about doing it, or if anyone has done one themselves and could provide and insight on how to hook it up, and where the fan relay wire is located. Basically how can I hook up a switch myself without having to buy a kit. Thanks in advance for any help you guys/gals can provide.

:cheers:

You can use a relay to send +12V batt voltage to the output of COOLFAN1 (Terminal B3). This is basically what a VINCI does and it will run both low-speed fans. I would not recommend disabling the stock low-speed fan circuit.


The relay should get its main power straight from the battery with about a 10 gauge wire (to be safe) and a 30A fuse.
