Default Just bought a taurus fan, need some help

the fan is a high/low fan just go out to your car and touch the wires to the battery to see which is high/low and which is the ground and it should pull the air towards it

I had mine hooked up to an on-off-on toggle switch as to where if it was running warmer than I wanted it to I could switch it on high

The blue is the high speed and the orange is low I believe. I just hooked mine up to the high speed.

Summit sells a controller for the fan, its $100. Yea its expensive, but I've only heard good about people running it. It even wires into your a/c to compensate when you run that.
