Melting Fuses in my s13!!

[riptor]

hey bro...what gauge wire are you using between the relay and the batt? what brand of fans are you using? what size fuse? what is the relay rated at?

def sounds like u might have too small wire...draw really isnt to much. melting means too much heat.

ran 4 gauge batt wire from alternator to battery
running 2x 8 gauge speaker wire running the relay to the fuse (1 relay per fan) then 4ga running to the battery
flex-a-lite 210's then swapped um out with flex-a-lite 220s
both go into 1 fuse which is 40a. and the relays are 30/40a DEI relays.

Any ideas is helping me...
