Check page 26 in 'electrical' section on this on-line PDF manual.

Be aware that the fan motors sometimes run in series as well as in parallel. I assume they only run at full speed (parallel) if the coolant temperature is very high. There are 3 relays used to achieve this.

What are you running a flex-a-lite fan on? Please don't say the radiator! I've used 2 of them on RX-7's. Both of them melted down ni less than 6 months. The stock fans pull more than enough air and much more than a flex-a-lite fan. If you are wiring up a couple of little ones to an oil cooler then I'd understand.

For both cooling fans to run in series only relay No.1 must be energised. When relays No2 and No.3 are also energised both fans run at full speed. Basically this means that fan No.1 gets its ground connection when relay No.2 is energised. Fan No.2 is permanently grounded. Hope that helps?
