which fan is what and how to wire a slim fan up?

[grdsm]

Ok when I bought my car there was a slim fan in front of the radiator and it was wired up to the battery. I know that normally there is 2 fans there. How do I wire up the slim fan to the actual cooling system intend of the battery? which plug do I use the driver side or the passanger side and how do I wire it color with what color.

To wire it up to the cooling system find the factory plug harness on the passenger side of the car for the factory cooling fan. It should be around the radiator overflow bottle etc. Since you dont have the opposing factory plug you'll have to cut the factory plug harness off the wire. Threre should be 4 wires. I believe different years have different colors, on mine the yellow and the black wire went with the black from the fan and the blue and green went with the blue from the fan. If your wires are different just search for "fan wiring" and the answer will be there.

While your at it, check to make sure the fan is blowing in the right direction. Is there any reason why your slim-line is in front of the radiator? Its fine there just check it to make sure its pushing instead of pulling or vise versa

Oh just saw you've got a tubular manifold and external wastegate, thats probably why your fan is in front.

Okay Now I noticed that the sensor that goes into the radiator at the bottom passanger side has the plug on it but it is cut. Where do those wires go and how should they be wired up? does anyone have pictures of what plug is for what?

okay Using the diagram I got from above and the stock plug on the car I wired up my temp sensor on the bottom of my radiator, I jump the plug to the sensor and got signal to the fan. SO far so good I double check the my fan to if it worked and it turns on strong I mount the F***K*N B*TCH and it does not work. I have it mounted on the same side of the stock fan. I jumped the temp sensor, hit the fan and it started the work slowly I tried it again and it doesn't work any more. Does the fan have to be straight up, no angle, to work right or is the fan trash.
