Good Way To Wire Fan

[FinkenS14]

Hey guys I got a 16" fan on my RB set up, and right now I have one wire grounded to the chassis, and then the power wire going into the cab, with a switch, and then right back out to the battery, so whenever I turn the car on, I just flip the switch and the fan comes on.

But does anybody else got any ideas?

[crash n burn]

yeah, incorporate a relay

EDIT!!!
ignore what i said.. thats a dangerous way to wire it.

if you like fires or replacing switches leave it the way it is otherwise use a relay

Get yourself one of these. Don't cost much and is very effective.

Easy to install. Adjustable, too.

I don't have much faith in those things, I've had one go bad on me and seen a few others crap out on some friends.

Been running this one and it has worked flawlessly and is easy to install

x2, I always thought this was the best idea that way at drift/autox/drag events I can run the fan with the car off. I got a big interstate deep cell running my car so that battery is a beast and never runs dry.

I bought the dakota digital one for my car. They have been making stuff for hotrods and customs forever now and have good quality stuff. It has a plug for triggering the fan when the A/C is on as well as a timer for letting your fan run for a set amt of time after the car has been turned off. If you have an aftermarket temp gauge like, an autometer, it hooks right up to your temp sensor and even comes with a relay. I have mine set for a dual speed single fan. I love it and I think I paid right at 100 for it. It's a compairable price to the DIF setups.
