Hello,
I'm trying to figure out how to wire this up with no avail. What I'm trying to do is have a 3 way switch set up so I can run my 100% manual e-fan setup (one fan - off - two fans). The challenge I'm having is when the switch is on the 'two fan' setting, both fans need to turn on, but how do I wire this up so on the 'one fan' setting both fans don't turn on as well. Each fan is has independent wiring.
Thanks in advance

So you are using a SPDT center off switch which triggers your fan relays? A diode connected across the outer terminals will give you a one/two fan operation. A 1N4000 series diode will work fine, assuming you are using bosch/tyco style relays.
