Need help with a vintage air trinity switch wiring
Hello I have a gen 2 vintage air super set up in my 1938 Oldsmobile with a lq4 and stock computer and a single fan.
my question is how to wire it I know the computer uses a ground to trigger the electric fan to turn on.
Sorry for asking but I’m not sure which way would be correct.
Thank yku kelly

Tie the white wire on the 86 pin of the relay to the PCM fan signal. That way, both the trinary switch and the PCM control the ground of the relay. You don't need an external temp switch or adjustable thermostat with the PCM.
You could also run two relays in parallel where the 30, 85, and 87 pins on both relays are tied together and the 86 pins have their separate grounding points: one connected to the PCM and the other connected to the trinary switch.

Thank you I thank two relays with separate ground triggers so the pcm doesn’t receive that it’s getting a ground signal when it’s not sending one and turning on the check engine light

You could also install a diode on the PCM side, but I agree that two relays in parallel would be better.
