Not trying to step on someone's toe's but if you guys have a problem where it is hard to start your car because the fan is on I would look at something else. You might have a battery thats just not strong enough anymore or your starter is drawing too much amperage.

The only reason I say this is because my electronic thermostat that kicks on my fan died so I wired it up direct to the rear defroster switch(i have no defroster but had spare switch that I modified) for when the key is turned forward the fan comes on. I also live where the temperature outside is already getting around 100+ degrees and never have a single problem starting the car. My fan is from a Mark VIII and draws around 70 amps just to turn the thing on.
