Might want to ...>>
Trigger that fan with a relay. I forget what they draw, but I decided, since I was utilizing some existing power in the rear center console, to do some low amperage switching there and avoid any potntial issues..I figured, since Spal sold a relay kit, there probably was a reason, and I originally had 2 fans on that circuit...
