[DML] Re: i fitted the wings b cool update kit desighned by harold mcelraft,and need help!

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

I hate it that my name is associated with this as I have not seen a 
DPNW kit so, I have no idea if the basic circuit is what I 
originally designed. Now that you know I have no affiliation with 
the kit I will make a comment.

You have created a direct short with an incorrect relay (unlikely in 
my opinion - just based on my experience with DPNW) or, you have the 
wires connected incorrectly by placement or by splice (highly likely 
in my opinion).

The concept of my design was to create identical circuits for each 
fan. I have uploaded a diagram of my original design in "files" 
under "DeLorean AC Mod.pdf". This is for your review and 
enlightenment only - use at your own risk. My DeLorean uses a single 
circuit breaker (15 amp heavy duty - post type) for each fan - not 
the single one shown on the diagram.
