yes the a/c one is just an override.
you need it at low speed or stopped to get air over the condensor.
you can also use a trinary switch to give that signal so the fan isn't on all the time.

maybe I misread your question.
the a/c wire can be on a toggle, or on the a/c line.

if you supply power to that circuit there it doesn't care what temp you are at, it will start the fans.

the regular controler portion with the temp sensor will take care of temps if you don't hook that up.

The AC override is to cool the condensor, not the radiator. This is for the condition your ac is cycling and your radiator does not need cooling from the fan.

As for the automatic temperature. Those numbers seem low. The OFF temp must be higher than your thermostst temperature.

good then i wont worry about hooking up a toggle switch
the paper work say will come on when temp reachs 180 and will stay on till temp reaches 170

magnum brings up a good point.

if you use a 180 thermostat, it will never shut off.
