Radiator fan install & wiring help...



The 16v's have a 2 speed fan. Brown is the ground and the other wire to use 
is the red/black, that is the high speed wire.
As for placement. I don't believe that moving it from one place to another 
will help. Its the same amount of air movement over the same surface area of 
radiator.

But then again I have been wrong at times. Some one else will chip in!
