This is a scanned Hayden Automotive instruction sheet (P 12623-IS, Rev. 3/00; earlier revision SS 12623IS dated 08/21/97, Dayco Products—Eaglemotive) showing a thermostat wiring diagram for an aftermarket electric cooling fan installation. The printed diagram shows an electric fan unit connected to ground and to a thermostat, with a manual switch (marked "mount under dash") wired in parallel with the thermostat for independent operation, joined with butt connectors. Power runs through a 20 amp fuse to the ignition side of the switch. Over the printed diagram, the uploader has drawn colored lines in red and blue marker showing a modified hookup: red wiring runs from the battery (hand-labeled box) through a relay (hand-labeled box) to a connector block and up to the fan circuit, while blue wiring connects the switch/fused circuit to the relay trigger side. The scan documents both the manufacturer's stock wiring scheme (thermostat plus manual override switch in parallel) and the owner's relay-based modification to carry fan current from the battery instead of directly through the switch. A camera date stamp reads AUG 18 2004.
