slim fan hot wired

[killerclown1984]

I just got a 1990 tsi and i want to hook the temp sensor back up. Can i cut the 12 volt power and splice it to the temp sensor ?

I bought a slim fan for my talon when I added the FMIC. What I did is took the harness from the stock (passenger side fan) and cut them about 4 inches from the fan. Then I took the two wires on the new slim fan (happend to be the same colors) and spliced them together. Then I plugged it back in with both the sensor at the bottome of the radiator and the normal plug in.

Kicks on when it should

It's really just as simple as cutting the connector off.
I got lucky and had the same color wires on the slim fan too. Blue and Black IIRC.

Cut the clip off, crimp or solder the 4 wires together (2 on the connector and 2 on the fan) and bang, you're done.
