Whoa!!! I was reading a thread about aux fans and came across a "resistor"... My fab is wired directly, full ON when the compressor engages. It's been rewired that way since temps here are always HOT. Pus it made things simpler... Anyway... could my fan not having a resistor be the cause of the current draw that's heating up my wires? If yes, whay resistor should I put in there? And where? What line? Thanks

I thought that the resistor just facilitated the hi and lo modes. Is it there to limit even the HI mode?

Aaaaand... how do I measure AMP draw? I have a multimeter, i just don't know where to connect it to test.
