Painless Performance Products 30112 Installation Instructions

ADJUSTABLE FAN THERMOSTAT
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: This thermostat is to be used with a fan relay to control the fan. If you don't already
have a fan relay you must get one (Painless Part # 30101).
1) Mount the thermostat assembly under the hood in a convenient location as close to the fan and
relay as possible using the provided mounting screws.
2) Take the thermostat probe and insert it into the radiator fins carefully as not to damage the radiator
core.
NOTE: Be very careful when routing the probe and tubing to prevent kinking.
NOTE: Depending on the particular radiator you have you may not be able to insert the probe into
the fins and may need to mount the probe to the back side of the radiator using plastic tie-
wraps, clamps, or a mounting bracket insuring the probe is in the hot air flow of the radiator.
3) Locate the fan relay wire that goes to ignition hot power (relay activation wire) and cut it.
Take and connect one of the cut ends to either thermostat terminal and take the other cut end and
connect it to the other thermostat terminal.
4) Test the thermostat for proper operation:
When the knob is turned all the way counter clockwise the thermostat connects the two gray/white
wires and the fan should come on when the ignition switch is turned on.
Turning the knob clockwise will increase the temperature that is required to turn the fan on.
