Doing a taurus fan swap in a week or 2. I removed my ac,and all i can find is ac diagrams. I will only be using the low side of the fans since high side pulls a load of amps on start,and is not needed since i dont have ac anymore. If you can help id appreciate it.

 

cant you pull power straight from the battery ? How is this fan going to kick on? when the engine hits a certain temp ?

Edit: after some research I dont think you connect it any where since the ac got deleted. You can hook it up on something else that would make the engine run hotter then usual .

 

I'm going to run a thermostat control system with a relay. I could indeed run it in a simple way but i only want it coming on when the temp hits whatever i set it at. Fans pull amps,and my lil 105 alt doesnt like my subs,fans,etc working together full time. i needa do the ad244 upgrade too.

 

ahh ok that makes sense now.

 

Dont they sell thermostats that are designed for this specific reason to kick the electric fans on when it gets hot?

edit.. I am drunk... second edit... your alt cant handle it? how much power are you running to your subs?

 

900 rms at 2 ohms. My voltage doesnt drop at all until the heater is on high and lights are on with the subs going. If everything off but the subs and lights its fine. I just know that installing the taurus fans its going to put some stress on my alt with everything else on.


on another note,richie wheres that bottle of yager i was suppose to get for cmas? lol

 

Dude, I will get you one and mail it to you LOL


On a side note, what amp do you have, I am running 750w at 2 ohms, soon to be 1000w at 1 ohm, and did the big 3, and have the headlight retrofit with the relay harness, I can bang at full volume, have the heat or AC on, and headlights, and the voltage stays at 14.

I am running a class D monoblock amp though, they are extremely efficient.

 

im running a mono block as well. the gauge needle sits right under 14 with everything on full tilt. It just bugs me looking at it lol.

 

I have the digi, and they are known to be inaccurate, so maybe I am just under 14, hell, if my headlights dont dim, I could care less LOL
especially when the windshield wiper arms are jumpin.
