Did your kit come with the small black fan relay? If it did where are you mounting it?



I mounted the isolation relay on an angle facing upwards because I wanted access to the two main contacts and the two control contacts going to the black fan relay. This was done just so I can access them in the future without having to pull the compressor out of the smuggler box.



Since I was using the original front condenser and fan from the factory system I decided to leave the AC fuse panel relay in place and the cooling fan motor AC relay in the smugglers box. I tied the green wire on pin 86 of the cooling fan motor AC relay to the white wire pin 86 on the new black fan relay. This allowed control of the old front condenser fan motor via its smuggler box relay by the AC ECU while still using fuse 20 (25 amp) fuse to supply power to the front condenser motor. So the old condenser and the new condenser fans are controlled by the ECU but are individually powered on separate fused supply circuits.
