Topic: Where to get fan control relay.

[sharpxmen]

I recently installed the Taurus fan into my 92 YJ......along with the Summitt Racing relay and temp probe. It all worked very well for about two weeks....until I went Jeeping at Pumpkin Eater in So Cal....and I just happened to glance at my temp gauge and it was at the far right side....OH SH**.......overheating. Stopped, opened the hood....and antifreeze was shooting out of the overflow tank. Let it cool off....then unplugged the switch from my driving lights.....wired it right into the battery and the fan.....and off we went. the relay went bad......now it has a fuse inline direct from the fan to the new switch inside the Jeep....and it is then powered off the fuse box as well. So...the relay fried.....and now it is without a relay.....works great.

which model did you get?

I highly recommend using a relay.  It would have been safer to run the wire straight to the battery and not to the fuse box.  Electrical fires aren't fun.
