I finished my Lincoln Mark VIII fan install with the DCcontrol controller. See my gallery under E fans to see the installation. My total cost is $169. The controller is the most expensive item at $119 before tax and shipping. The fan runs at 50% when the AC compressor kicks in. The rest of the time the fan runs at variable speeds according to the temp of the radiator. I set mine for 202 degrees and it maintains that temp within 4 degrees. There are no swings of temp. I also ordered the LED indicator for the fan. I may have one issue in that on the highway I believe the fan is acting like a generator and the LED is coming on, but when I slow down it goes off. Maybe a diode across the fan would stop this. Any ideas?
