Find the temperature probe attached to the control unit. Insert the temp. probe through the hole in the top
bracket that is directly below the radiator inlet hose. Gently push the probe through the radiator fins. Push the
rubber cap over the end of the temp. probe to insulate it. You may have to loosen the top radiator bracket to
install the rubber cap. Zip-tie loose wires and vacuum lines to to the top bracket to keep them clear of the fan
blades.
Connect the radiator hose and refill the radiator with coolant. Be sure to remove the air bleed bolt before refill-
ing (located where the top radiator hose connects to the engine). Reinstall the air bleed bolt, the lower engine
cover, and the air intake tube. Insert the fuse for the electric fan into the fuse holder and reconnect the battery
terminals.
Start the engine and allow it to warm up completely. It is best to use a digital thermocouple or infrared heat
gun to read the temperature as the vehicle’s temperature gauge is not accurate enough. Feel the top radiator
hose - there should be hot coolant flowing through it. The engine is completely warmed up when it reaches
about 185° F.
If the fans have not already cycled on, turn the temperature control knob counterclockwise just until the fans
come on. The fans should cycle on and off to keep your engine at this temperature.
Turn on the air conditioning. The fans should cycle on and off with the A/C compressor. If not, check to see
that the A/C signal wire is connected correctly.
