Default Radiator Fan Wiring...

Does the brown wire go to the ground bolt?

Does the black wire go to the nut on the very top?

I forgot to take note when disconnecting it

Default I think middle.

Started the car, hit the a/c switch, fan turned on like it should. What is red/green for?

Maybe for climate control, which i don't have?

Default Odd?

The Bentley wiring diagrams are no real help, as they show only 2 resistors used. On my 93 90, all 3 are used?

I'll have to look closer into this! ;O)
