Flex-a-Lite Black Magic Electric Fan
Hi all-
I have a 1989 GT with a Black Magic electric cooling fan. It's wired in such a way that it still runs after the ignition has been turned off. This has turned out to be a problem since it's running the battery down to nothing on warm days, when I leave it parked. Anyway, I'd like to rewired the fan so that it turns off when the ignition is turned off, however, I don't have a wiring diagram for my car. So, for those of you who've installed a Black Magic fan, where did you connect the blue wire that comes from the fan? Or, does anyone know where I can get my hands on an '89 Mustang GT wiring diagram? Thanks in advance! -- Dave Degel 1989 Medium Burgundy Red GT FMS 3.73 FMS Shorty Headers Magnaflow catback, X-pipe Steeda Triax |

It very well may be bad, but I'd still like to rewire the fan so that it
doesn't run at all with the ignition off. Thanks "WindsorFox[SS]" > wrote in message news:3_rOe.3441$ej5.161@lakeread05... > D.A.

Sounds more like the OP needs a higher temp switch, not an override. -- Scott W.
