Well I gave up on finding the fusible link and ran hot wire from battery to relay. Now have another issue when I went to bench test the 6 month old fan--- plugged in ground connector, and ran a wire from the GREEN lead coming off of the fan plug directly to POS bat terminal and no fan. OK, so before I declare this a warranty claim, let's try running hot lead from the RED lead on fan. I touch the line to the POS batt terminal, and... 4th of July sparks. any ideas on why the shorting?? MY schematic says that the RED/GREEN leads from fan are (+)side for Hi/Lo.
