What exactly does it do? Just run the engine fans longer so it cools down the engine more???

if I remember right.. 2gnt's have two fans stock.. one only turns on when the engine starts to get too hot.. and the other only turns on when the A/C is on.. so I'm guessing that by hooking them together you get better/quicker cooling when the engine gets hot without turning on the A/C.. or you can cool the car down quicker on purpose by turning the A/C.. did I guess right? hehe.

If you don't want to use a toggle switch than you can do what I did. I wired mine so that the AC fan comes on when the ECU tells the Radiator fan to come on. Just splice into the blue wire and black wire on the radiator fan and run it to the blue and black wires on the AC fan. There's also two more blue wires w/ stripes on the AC fan. Ignore those. Just use the solid blue one.

I'm outta freon, so I leave the a/c on cause the compressor had no resistance. All you with your mods, ha... wiring!!! I just press a button and leave it on after the engine warms up to operating temp.
