E-Fan Setups
E-Fan Setups
OK guys, I know its been covered several, if not a 100 times, but can everyone with an E-fan Setup, post some pictures of your setup/mounting points and all, what products you used, etc This will be an updated thread that I will add into the Common Topics Sticky when we are done. The old threads are slightly corrupted. Thanks for your input in advance!

Here is my controller...spal v3

Here is my fan...flexalite 180 hooked up with zip ties
HPIM0510.jpg
These are the power and ground wires going to the fan...my fan had a female connector on it and i just cut it off.

Here is the power connection for my controller
HPIM0518.jpg
Here is the fuse going to the power connection(mine is a 30A)
HPIM0519.jpg
Here is the ground for the controller hooked to the right of the battery

Here is the ignition source wire and the a/c clutch wire. Ignition is the orange one and the a/c clutch is blue.
For the ignition, find a fuse that only has power when the truck ignition is on.
For the a/c, you can directly splice into the a/c clutch power or just get a fuse tie in and tap into the a/c clutch relay. I don't know if the a/c relay differs from year to year, but when you pull the relay out, tap into the last one on the row with three male connectors. It will make sense when you pull the relay out.

Here is half of the engine bay...directly above the power steering cap is my temperature sensor for my controller. (It is the gold piece with two wires coming out the top.)

just wondering... the sensor is in the return (cold) side of the radiator... whouldn't the thermostat housing be a better choise? but the spal probably allows to adjust for any temp, correct? how much does the fan run with out the a/c on? sorry for the wierd questions, im just in a debate rather or not to install one
