Ron Francis AR-36 Cooling Fan Relay Instruction manual
Below you will find brief information for Cooling Fan Relay AR-36. This document outlines the wiring instructions for the AR-36 cooling fan relay. The relay is designed to handle one large or two small radiator cooling fans, with a maximum amperage of 30 amps. This relay is intended for use with a fuse panel. It offers multiple connection points to power and control the fan(s). When using a temperature sensor, the sensor can be directly wired to the relay.

AR-36 Cooling Fan Relay Wiring This cooling fan relay m ounted in the fuse panel will handle one large or two sm all radiator cooling fans (up to 30 am ps). Connect the wires as follows: Red (BATTERY FD) (12 gauge wire): connects to term inal #C on the panel and run to the starter solenoid. Connect this wire to the sam e term inal as the positive battery cable using the yellow ring term inal provided. NOTE: The fan relay m ust be powered through an external source. W e recom m end powering the relay direct from the battery connection on the starter solenoid or from the battery itself. The fan relay is fused through #C on the fuse panel through a 30 am p fuse installed in the panel. DO NOT CONNECT THIS W IRE TO A POW ER FEED SOURCE ON THE FUSE PANEL. Blue (COOLING FAN) (12 gauge wire): connects to term inal #D on the panel and run to the cooling fan(s). Orange (IGNITION FD) (18 gauge wire): Connects this wire from term inal #G to term inal #H on the panel. This is the ignition feed to the relay. NOTE: If you are using a temperature sensor, connect this wire direct to the sensor instead. Green (SENSOR GRND) (18 gauge wire): Connect to term inal #F on the panel and run to a good ground. Check the fan rotation to assure the com pleted unit is pushing or pulling the air according to your application. © Copyright 2003 Ron Francis' P:\INST\AR-36 AR-36 Cooling Fan Relay Wiring This cooling fan relay m ounted in the fuse panel will handle one large or two sm all radiator cooling fans (up to 30 am ps).

Frequently Answers and Questions
How do I connect the battery feed wire to the relay?
Connect the red (BATTERY FD) wire to terminal #C on the panel and run to the starter solenoid. Connect this wire to the same terminal as the positive battery cable using the yellow ring terminal provided. Note that the relay must be powered through an external source. We recommend powering the relay direct from the battery connection on the starter solenoid or from the battery itself. The fan relay is fused through #C on the fuse panel through a 30 amp fuse installed in the panel. DO NOT CONNECT THIS WIRE TO A POWER FEED SOURCE ON THE FUSE PANEL.
How do I connect the cooling fan wire to the relay?
Connect the blue (COOLING FAN) wire to terminal #D on the panel and run to the cooling fan(s).
How do I connect the ignition feed wire to the relay?
Connect the orange (IGNITION FD) wire from terminal #G to terminal #H on the panel.
How do I connect the sensor ground wire to the relay?
Connect the green (SENSOR GRND) wire to terminal #F on the panel and run to a good ground. If you are using a temperature sensor, connect this wire direct to the sensor instead.
