I would still prefer to have the fan come on auto.with temp since I once forgot to turn it on, if I can find a keyed source for power. Maybe my problem is just alt.and wire to solenoid From what you told me about your car, my fan might be my problem, one thing at a time. Like they say, you can't fix stupid,
Hey, nothing stupid there, we've all been there/done that at one time or another.........I could write a book on all the bonehead things I've tried and/or done!!!!!
I think the heavier wiring and relay will solve your problem,the extra amps on the GM alternator surely can't hurt either.....
