The male spade measures .200" A normal speaker terminal is .250". I did some searching on digikey.com and found some .205" terminals and some .187" terminals.

Before I order some, what are you guys using to supply power to these fans? The gauge available for those connetors is 14-16AWG. How much current do each of these fans draw? I might just solder some 12AWG directly to the terminals and use a four terminal "in-line" connector that I can get cheap versus ordering these special sized guys. But i'd hate for the heat from soldering to cook the motor inside.

I figured out which connector and pins do what as far as pollarity goes. For the three terminal guy, is it correct that two of those terminals are the same? I mean they ohm out as being shorts to one another.


-Daytona Jeff. I think the fan is going to work. :) I cleaned off a lot of the corrosion on the pins and was able to get them to spin. The speed didn't nock me on my tail like the Mark VIII, but I'll hold judgement until I get it on the car. Do you remember your connectors being loose?

The factory pigtails are 10ga, so I fused them with 30A fuses.

From the research I've done on the web, I believe you put power to both terminals for high speed and only one for low speed. I don't know for sure because I used the factory connectors which only have one power wire.

I would try to get some factory weatherpack connectors from the JY or the dealer.

Mike, if you find a ford part # for those connectors, please share ;) I need to get them too!

I too cheap for that. :D
And the locking tabs are "deleted" from this model. ;)

I'm liking the soldered wire idea. Shrink wrap it and never have to worry about corrosion.
The 14 AWG wire doesn't sound like the better way to go.

I just soldered some 12AWG wire directly to the terminals. Fealt really strong. I then drilled some holes here and there to zip-tie the wires to. I also attached my 75Amp BOSCH relay to the fan shroud. Going to run both fans at once. Total wire length should be about 4' on the + side and 3 feet on the - side.
