Default Altima Fan Wiring?

Anyone have any issues with wiring the Altima Fans? I believe the fans are dual speed fans becasue there are 4 wires for each fan. Is there a easy way to wire these things up or are they a pain in the ass to hook up. I currently have a single ford tarus fan right now.

Both fans are dual speed, which gives you a ton of control as to how hard they should blow. I kick both lows on with the AC and both highs based on coolant temp. Do a search on one of the national forums. There are plenty of writeups on how to do them. Just drop a link here if you want an opinion on a certain write up.

could you fun that from the alternator?i found that there is a alt wire that only has power when the ignition is turned on.im having probs finding a good spot for mine i have mine on the ecm but the fan draws to much power that it "robbs" the other electronics.im gonna try the alt spot at work today and see if it works if not im gonna have to do it like the diagrahm.

Just me

I hard wired mine to a switch so they're always on, the left fan i connected a wire to the positive on the battery via the switch to the white(green stripe) wire, and the right fan i believe was white(blue stripe) that wire to the battery. connected both of the grounds and ran them to the battery (there's a fuse inline to the switch). Works great so far with my koyo radiator. even when i beat on the car it never gets hot, just have to remember to shut the fan off (and turn it on) when i get out of the car (and in )

I have a switch that i turn on when i feel the car is running hot or when i need to switch on the A/c compressor. Have it for 100%. The switch is great, i dont regret putting i in at all

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.
