Well, I purchased some Altime E-fans, 2 speed. And im confused on how to go about wiring them up, I am a semi-newb when it comes to wiring, never messed with the relays.

Anywho, there are 2 fans, each with 4 wires. I assume one is power and one is ground and the other 2 are high and low settings for each fan. Does anyone have any expreeince in wiring these fans that could write a small write-up?

 

As far as the fan goes, there are two powers and two grounds if I remember, one for low and one for high speed. If you take a multimeter and used the continuity tester on it, you can find out which ones are grounds and which ones are their corresponding powers, then just wire it to the battery real quick like to see what setting it corresponds too.


As for the relays, it's quite simple really, one you get an understanding:
Pins 85 and 86 are your power
30 and 87 are your triggered power

When power is supplied to 85 and 86 (one positive and one negative obviously) then power will be allowed to flow from 30 to 87 (again, pos and negative) when there is no power, then 30 will be connected to 87a, which is not connected to anything, so no power will flow and it will not drain your battery.

These numbers can be located on the relay itself btw. Also, most common relays can only flow a max of 30 amps, so be careful of how much you are flowing, most people put a fuse in line from the battery to the relay to prevent overloading it.
