I was reading thru this again and noticed that you said that you "controlled the ground" with the relay. Did you mean that you run constant voltage to the motor and use the relay to close a grounding circuit of the fan motor?


The reason I ask that specificly is because most use the relay to break/make the voltage to the fan motor

Yes, that is correct Jerry. For the fans and also the wiper motor. I copied a Chevrolet Corvette and control the ground circuit to make / break the circuit. A friend has a vette that was having some electrical gremlins, he asked if I could help sort through them, and I learned that for the wipers at least they were controling the ground circuit to run them. I don't remember the year but maybe 67 or 68?? This was the year the cowl had a door over the wipers which had to open first then the wipers would start.

ANyhow, I copied it and carried it a step further. And no.. I am not a "conventional" sort of person.. always testing and trying things "just because I can"
