Slide coolant overflow bottle onto new bracket in the same manor that the bottle was removed from fan
shroud.
see Detail 7
Install the pipe-nipple for the overflow tube to the filler neck of the radiator. Route and trim the overflow
hose as needed. Note: Be sure that there is enough clearance between the hose and any moving engine
components.
Fill radiator/ cooling system with vehicle manufacturer recommended coolant. Remember to fill reservoir to
cold fill level if equiped.
Note: For automatic transmission equipped cars.
We chose not to install a transmission cooler within our radiator’s side tank. This maximizes the cooling
efficiency of both your engine and transmission. If you do have an automatic transmission, you will need
to install an aftermarket transmission cooler. Flex-a-lite makes a full line of transmission coolers along with
customized mounting options.

Connect the “B” terminal on the control to the 12 volt positive (+) battery terminal using the thick red wire
and fuse holder provided in the kit.
(Do not install fuse at this time) Connect the “G” terminal on the control to battery negative (ground - )
terminal using the thick black wire provided in the kit.
Note: Failure to connect ground wire directly to negative battery terminal may lead to premature failure of
control module.
Connect the “+” terminal of the control box to a keyed 12 volt positive (+) power source (i.e. fuse box), using
the thin red wire and fuse taps (if necessary) provided in the kit.
Note: Attach this wire to an ignition controlled source to stop the fan when the vehicle is shut off. Attach
this wire to a constant source to keep the fan running after the vehicle is shut off.
If you have air conditioning: With the 3-way connector provided, pass the A/C clutch positive(+) wire (con-
nected to the A/C compressor) through the connector. Place the green wire provided into the closed end of
the connector. Crimp metal plate. Snap plastic cover into place. Attach green wire to the “C” terminal of the
control box. Air Conditioning Relay activates fan when A/C is turned on.
Insert temp. probe through radiator core near the upper (inlet) hose. Install rubber cap over end of probe.
Note: To maintain position of temp probe the cap must be installed onto probe end.

Note: To stop the fan from activating thermostatically, omit the lead to the “+” terminal of the control box.
“B”, “G”, & “M” must remain connected.
ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
1. Attach the temperature control knob to the control box.
2. Turn the knob clockwise completely.
3. Idle the vehicle, observe the temperature of the vehicle. (Use the vehicles gauge)
4. When the temperature of the vehicle reaches slightly above normal, turn the control knob counter-clockwise
until the fan turns on. From here on, the fan should activate at this temperature setting. Adjust as necessary ac-
cording to your vehicle needs.
