Ok, I got the plug today. Now my question is how to wire the fan. It has 3 wires ( 2 speed fan) and one is clearly labeled (+) and the other is (-). I don't know what the center wire is for, but I assume it is the second positive. how do I find out which one is the low speed power, and which is the high speed power?

I am wiring it into a 2 speed fan controller from dccontrols.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I really don't know. The guy said it is from a mark viii. I looked online, and the closest pic showed from like a 97 or so. There are 2 numbers on the shroud: F7LH 8146 AA, and F8LH 8C607 AA. They wouldn't pull up for me online though, neither as a ford part or Lincoln part. I'm at a loss here.

Thanks again.

i did a little searching for you, with the fan blades down and the back of the motor facing you, the - should be on the right, and + should be on the left. as far as the middle wire, you do not need to use it. the website i found was www.electricfanwiringlincolnmarkVIII.com there is one that says "electric fan conversion using the notorius Lincoln Mark VIII fan", that sends you to http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2...8Fan/index.php there are step by step directions for you. hope this helps
