I meant I want it to work with the thermoswitch as the activator. So i don't have to push any buttons.

replace the existing thermoswitch with a lower temperature one?

That fan has nothing to do with the A/C, it's an overheat fan. Constantly referred to as the A/C Fan, A/C Condenser fan, etc.. when it's actually not.

It can be dual purposed to be one (like most have).

I'm pretty sure it won't activate if the ac is not on. Even if the thermo switch reaches 194 degrees.

You're incorrect :) 

Please do not talk in F, it's a JDM and we are Australian. 

We don't want another Mars Climate Orbiter disaster.

Nope, it won't activate alone. 

If so, someone has cocked about with your wiring.

The above diagram is from a Nissan Manual, you're telling me they decided to print the wrong information and wire it differently?

I deleted my air con, everything under the hood. Now it won't activate at all. I want to create a stand alone circuit that activates the fan at 194d.

Then as Dose Pipe said your wiring has been stuffed with unless your ECU is not factory, as the fan has its own individual relay.

On the factory ECU the fan relay pin is always grounded, so if you bridge / bypass the radiator thermo switch you energise the thermo fan relay turning the fan on.

I will point out that the relay activation ECU pin is not constantly grounded on full stand alone ECUs like Haltech, Link etc. as they rely on the logic parameters to ground the input. In the case of a Power fc D-jetro map sensor vesion this pin is completely made redundant so the fan will never turn on.

Actually the above diagram is from MSPaint. I took the snip from the original diagram from the manual, pulled out the ECU connections and made it generic for an arbitrary fused power supply, relay, thermoswitch and main load.

I don't see your diagram.

Manual states 90c +/- 3c just so we are not talking Fahrenheit rubbish.

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
