Hey guys I've got a 90 gt and I bought a proform electric fan, and I hooked it up last night and its not comin on, I have the thermostat adjusted to 180 degrees. Heres the connections I have, I have my ground hooked up to my batt ground, I have my positive hooked up to a circuit breaker, and another positive from the breaker to my positive batt. And on my ignition wire if found a wire in the harness that i put a test light on to see if it turned on and off with the ignition and used a blue connector like you hook a tach up with for the ignition wire. I believe that i have the ground and the positive right, but i dont know about the ignition. where would you guys recommend I hook the ignition wire up at. thanks for all the help guys.

See http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2003/02/electricfan/index.php for fan wiring help.

EDIT:If you don't have a 3G or other high current alternator, your electrical system will be severely overloaded with the addition of an electric fan.

Make sure that you don't overload your electrical system when adding that Proform fan.

First thing I did was cut that temp. probe off then pulled the guts out of the top of the fan. Next, bought a 30amp relay and 30amp switch. I want full control of this thing.

Only thing I had to make sure of is to make sure air is being pulled in instead of being pushed out.
