Default aftermarket Fan switch?

car is gsr turbo on hondata s300, 180 thermostat, cars always in 200-210 temp zone, looking to keep temp down in 185..any one makes an aftermarket fan switch? or should i jump fan switch plug and keep fan on all time?

At what temp does the fan usually kick in? You should still be able to control the fan through the s300, you dont need to add any relays.

That's what I was going to say. I've seen a few cases where a relay was needed, but on most cars you don't need to do any additional wiring.

I didn't need to do any wiring on my car with ectune or crome free,and I don't see why hondata would be any different.

believe all stock honda fan switches are 210,which mine is,but a tuner told me that s300 dosnt have a fan overide,(k-pro does)but can use any auxilarry outputs to control it with a relay, but it would b easyer to run the fan constant by jumping plug wires

Personaly i would run the fan constant with the power you are makeing. I dont know of any aftermarket companys that sell a lower fan switch at this point.

there is a fan overide that you can use in hondata s300. go to perameters then protection at it is at the bottom. You can over ride it and set it to what temp you want it to come on. who is your tuner?

pluged in my s300 from laptop and went parameters and protection, clicked on fan overide, Did Not work, cause fan has constant power, and fan switch gives it ground, so i think going have to buy aftermarket fan switch, spoon,mugen makes them too.... there 80^ C which = 176^F...only difference between jumping fan switch plug and the aftermarked switches is fan wont b on til 176 wich will warm up faster, as if i connect the plug wires and run constant, take longer to warm up until thermostat opens.
