Re: Controlling fan with Terminator x Fan Control circuit

If not then plan ahead to use a relay style that comes in both the ECU voltage and 12v DC. That way it will be just a matter a matter of swapping one relay for another and changing the relay control wiring from the ECU to the new external controller if the Teminator proves problematic.
Thanks. From what I could tell looking online, it's just a 12V signal off the ECU. We'll see today how it goes.

All the wiring was done by the previous owner and finding the Cooling output leads is proving to be a challenge.
