Subject:      Re: '87 AC Radiator Fan Question
Comments: To: Dennis Haynes <dhaynes@OPTONLINE.NET>

Clarification -- assuming my '84 is wired correctly, fan is on low speed when compressor is on. If coolant temp in radiator is too high, fan goes into high speed mode and compressor shuts off until radiator returns to normal operating temp.
