I'm hoping this is as simple as I think but then again I'm no electrician so here I am asking for help once again. We all know an LS3 comes with a black box that powers the LS3, it connects to the wiring harness and it has two wires coming from it, one for the fuel pump the other for the rad fan. I've also attached the vintage air wiring diagram when using a trinary switch. My understanding of this switch is when the rad fan is off(no engine coiling required), the switch will power up the rad fan when the AC system requires it. Do I just connect the blue wire (rad fan) from the LS3 power center to the 40A circuit breaker??

Thanks in advance,
Perry

The Blue wire will go to your fan relay trigger. Some fan controllers have an AC trigger wire. If yours does not, you will splice it into the wire that triggers your fan relay via coolant temp. That will turn the fan(s) on by either the trinary or coolant temp

Just buy the PCM dual fan kit and AC bump and call it a day

Thanks for the awesome responses. I do like the idea dual fan controller and AC bump. Just want to be sure I order the right parts. Don posted a link, the photo is where the link took me, which part do I order and I'm sure they provide wiring diagrams.?

The first two items are what you want.

And make sure you read up on it on here. bottom line dont crimp anything till you install both parts. The AC bump uses the same two wires as the fan kit that you cut. No need to install it at the ECU connector whenever you have access to them right at the fuse box. It will make sense when you get it.
