I meant I want it to work with the thermoswitch as the activator. So i don't have to push any buttons.

replace the existing thermoswitch with a lower temperature one?

That fan has nothing to do with the A/C, it's an overheat fan. Constantly referred to as the A/C Fan, A/C Condenser fan, etc.. when it's actually not.

It can be dual purposed to be one (like most have).

I'm pretty sure it won't activate if the ac is not on. Even if the thermo switch reaches 194 degrees.

You're incorrect :) 

Please do not talk in F, it's a JDM and we are Australian. 

We don't want another Mars Climate Orbiter disaster.

Nope, it won't activate alone. 

If so, someone has cocked about with your wiring.

The above diagram is from a Nissan Manual, you're telling me they decided to print the wrong information and wire it differently?

I deleted my air con, everything under the hood. Now it won't activate at all. I want to create a stand alone circuit that activates the fan at 194d.

Then as Dose Pipe said your wiring has been stuffed with unless your ECU is not factory, as the fan has its own individual relay.

On the factory ECU the fan relay pin is always grounded, so if you bridge / bypass the radiator thermo switch you energise the thermo fan relay turning the fan on.

I will point out that the relay activation ECU pin is not constantly grounded on full stand alone ECUs like Haltech, Link etc. as they rely on the logic parameters to ground the input. In the case of a Power fc D-jetro map sensor vesion this pin is completely made redundant so the fan will never turn on.

Actually the above diagram is from MSPaint. I took the snip from the original diagram from the manual, pulled out the ECU connections and made it generic for an arbitrary fused power supply, relay, thermoswitch and main load.

I don't see your diagram.

Manual states 90c +/- 3c just so we are not talking Fahrenheit rubbish.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
