Electrical Wiring A Flex-a-lite.

[Tony O.]

A little more than a year ago, I installed a 3G Alternator in my 77 Cobra II with the hopes of installing an electric fan later on. Well I found Flex-a-lite with a controller and installed it. I followed the wiring diagrams online and it's almost ready to go. My questions are, what is a good trigger wire to tie into on the car ? Can I use the same wire to use as my "manual on bypass" or would it be better to use another one ? I would like to independently fuse them, would that be okay ? Any help is appreciated, Thanks.

I used the electric choke to trigger it, ran the wire behind the battery and beside the right valve cover to the choke. Put both wires in one crimp terminal.

Of course, it was right in front of my eyes. Thanks for getting me unstuck.......Tony O.
