jon1178 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Just finished installing my elec fans. While the trucks is at idle fans come on everything seems to be fine. When I drive it the temp starts to shot up to 225-230. I have a 160* stat in and using the nelson harness. Is it possible that the fans are running in the wrong direction?

jon1178 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 The fans are deffinently running in the wrong direction. They are pushing are through the radiator from the engine side instead pulling fresh air from the outside. Everything is wired as per instructions I am at a loss on this one.

chpspecial Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 did you try swapping the plugs at the fan side of the connectors.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon1178 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 no i did not. one plug is much shorter so it can only connect to the closer fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chpspecial Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 NO, I mean he actual polarity of each plug needs to be reversed.... not swap the plugs between fans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
