    Odd, question, I need the wiring diagram for a dodge caravan

    Might seem like a odd question, but I am in need of the wiring diagram that shows the raditor fan on a 93 dodge caravan.
    I went to the junkyard with a tapemeasure and found a electric fan from a 93 dodge caravan with a V6 and it fits the measurements of the radiator on my cherokee almost perfectly. Its apparently a 2 speed fan, but it has 4 wires. Black, yellow, dark green, and light green. If I could find a factory diagram showing where each wire from the fan goes, that would be awesome! I have been searching google with no luck yet. Hoping maybe some of you guys might have some more resources than I do.

    i hate chrysler diagrams... so difficult to read compared to what GM and Ford were doing in the same era.

    looks like yellow and black are grounds, so the greens are the positive voltages. can't tell which ones are paired though.

    i'd test it in the junkyard with a portable jumper pack.

    I played around with it when I got home yesterday, and found hig and low speeds, but was confused by the combination of wires to do so.
    Ground the black wire, apply power to light green, fan runs, remove power from light green and switch to dark green, fan runs, appears to be the same speed. keep DG hooked up and add power to LG, fan speed picks up slightly, but just enough to notice. Found by accident that the yellow was another ground, it kinda touched the valve cover when I wasnt watching and had both greens and the black hooked up. When the yellow found ground the fan took off like a airplane...lol
    I just wanted to know what the proper or factory way was to wire it up, as I didnt want to burn it up.

    Any more of that diagram? Where does the dark green go? It shows the ground, then the light green and yellow are both hooked to relays and it turns on the relays at the same time to give the motor extra power and ground for high speed. But what about the low speed? Does the DG come from a relay too, or is it a switched power wire and low speed run anytime the ignition is on? And also, I wonder if it removes power from the low speed wire when it turns on the high speed, or leaves it on.

    i have no idea what the answer is to any of those questions is. chrysler provides so little information and broken diagrams that i can't really tell.

    it actually sounds like you can have either one circuit connected for low speed, then both connected for high speed.

    Kinda what I was thinking. But was just curious where the dark green wire went to.
    Guess if I burn up this one I just go back to the junkyard and grab another one. Only paid $13 for this one...lol. Gotta love pull a part junkyard.

    i ASSUME directly to either the battery or some other high amperage capability power distribution center.

    but i'll never know. from alldata, these diagrams are just total crap. maybe it was better in the FSM, but i've never used them.
