Re: Controlling fan with Terminator x Fan Control circuit

Since either method requires a relay and wiring to the fan I would try using the ECU to controller the fan first and if it turns problematic then add the external controller.

It may be the relay control voltage from the ECU is not 12v DC. A little research on the ECU will show if the fan control signal is 12v DC. 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.
