    2008 2.9 Colorado Fan

    I'm looking at converting from the clutch fan over to electric fan, but I am unsure which selection in the system file selection on which to choose for it to be controlled by the PCM for T-stat & a/c turn on temp/delay?

    Anyone ever do this? How did you wire it up and then set the tune for it?
    I have a burrito in my colon, yet refried beans come out...
    How i know it's from the same meal? I didn't ingest corn any other time.

    2008 should be E67 so just wire it like a TrailBlazer or V8 Colorado for efans. Make the necessary changes to your file in the System -> Fans and good to go. You have to make a handful of changes in the tune, IIRC changing about 5 or 6 tables. There are a few stock vehicles to compare or you can find a tuned file floating around here. There are a few vendors (hint hint) that sell efan kits and explain what tune modifications need to be made.

    Which trailblazer had the e-fan? I only recollect those being equipped with clutch style.
    I looked up the vendor's for my application, but they either are no longer supporting the 2008's or they want 400+ for a kit that isn't what I am fully after (comes with an aftermarket controller) .
