E-Fan Wiring, Will this work?

[jmwenick]

Hey guys, I have my electric fan wired in with a switch right now, but I would like to switch it to a temp controlled setup. Will this work? Also where is the drain Plug on our radiators? Cause I think the sensor goes there. Any help anyone?

There are electric thermostats that fit in the fins of the radiator. never toughting the coolant

...But if you have a temp sensor that fits in the drain (called the "petcock"), it would be located on the bottom of the radiator to the driver's side.

Yes, this idea of yours would work-- there are kits available all over the net.

I did mine this way, I can walk you thru the wiring when you're ready. Get a relay and a thermostatically-controlled switch.

ya that would work ..but u can get a fully adjustable one form advance for 20-25 dollars..this one uses a prob that slides into the radaitor fins.. i have one and it works great

[jmwenick]

Do you mean advanced auto? is it a whole kit?

[matt black]

ya advance auto parts.. and ya is a hole kit..the only other thing u need is a relay..i use the 0332209150 bosch relay.they are $3 ..and the wiring is really easy

i wired up my electric fan with an external sensort that just mounts thru the radiator fins. I picked it up from advanced auto for like $30 for the kit, and it works awesome. It came with all the wireing i needed, and the relay too...
