SPAL fan wiring/relay kit question

[CincinnatiKid]

I have the wiring harness and relay out of this kit I'll sell you for cheap

I ended up not using it.

Since i have bad electricals in the car i opted for the harness kit. I just don't trust 20+ y/o wiring harness lol.

It's in the body harness that remained with the car, and if you leave the resistor in line you can likely retain low and high speed. I can draw up a diagram if there isn't one here somewhere already.


BTW amazon has many of the Spal 16" models for cheaper with free shipping. ;)

Ah, I should have no problem, or rather, Andrew should have no problem wiring that up for me. :D

Should work exactly the same on a 24V engine:

Why don't you just use your stock fan wiring? Easy as pie.

Where is the existing fan wiring, in the part of the harness that runs around the front with all of the lighting wiring, or in the E34 harness that I'll be putting in?

^That.

I'm about to order the fan and other required bits for my 16" pusher setup, and I'm not sure on what wiring/relay kit I need. There's 3 available, the basic relay kit, the 185 degree relay kit, or the 195 degree relay kit. The basic is only $34.99 and the other 2 are $49.99, so obviously I'd like to go with the cheaper one if I can, but if not, it's only a $15 difference.

BTW, this will be on an M42 radiator with a NV M50.
