Has anyone got a picture or can tell what wires go to the fan switch from the relay it appears that mine has had a switch fitted badly. There's 2 green and yellow wires from the relay however only one is wired to the fan switch.
From the switch it is joined to the relay and where another wire goes onto the alternator.
It also has a orange wire connected from the switch to the relay.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

No original wiring used as my car is hmmm a little different:laugh: I had to start from scratch.

I will see what I can do. The wires to and from the rad fan switch I think are orange on the OE setup, earths should still be black and I think the live from alternator is brown to pin 30 on the relay. The rad fan live is still red

Sounds stupid but how do you know the numbers on the relay. My fan is wired right and the red goes into the relay.

In fact I wonder if they hav been disconnected totally from the relay as the green/yellow wires don't come from the relay.

Take relay out and the numbers should be stamped underneath you will also note my diagram and the pin angles on the relay that these should correspond to:agree:

Hopefully someone with an OE setup could put a pic up.

Well the way set up is at the moment is as follows
.
Orange wire from fan switch to relay.
Yellow/green wire from switch to + on alternator.
All the other wires seem to be wired correctly.
If someone can confirm if this is right.

Cheers for the diagram James. I think ill start from scratch with a new relay. Should be simple enough and just wire direct to the battery as per your diagram.
