Alright guys, I'm new here! So please bear with me if I have missed another post with the information I need.

My fan quit working this summer and I am in a financial pickle so I cut the wires and hotwired it up. I'm under the impression that my ac condenser is clogged which prevented the fan from blowing onto my radiator. My radiator suffered a tiny little crack on the top driver side corner, it's cracked on the plastic part. I've managed to temporarily patch that up and stop the leak. So I've had no issues with overheating since I hotwired the fan.

Now, my mechanical knowledge is basic, probably above average for a lady. But my electrical aspect of mechanics is non-exsistent. Frankly, being electrocuted is a big fear of mine so it scares the **** out of me.

I need to know if hooking up a toggle switch instead of twisting my wires together is really as simple as wrapping one wire around one side of the switch and the other wire around the other side. Is my lack of confidence in electrical work making this job seem more complicated then it is? Is my fear of being shocked turning a simple job into something complicated? I've had the switch for two weeks now but my lack of money, knowledge and stubborn pride have kept me from asking for help until now. It's just a regular on/off toggle switch, not a fancy one with a fuse (I think some have fuses in them?). The wires are already cut and running through my dash so any tips or inscructions about hooking up the toggle switch would be extremely helpful and greatly appreciated.


I'm a newly single mom who's a little rusty when it comes to mechanics. The only thing I have experience working on in the past is chevrolets. I used to do all the basic stuff on my first car, a 96' Chevy cavalier. I'm capable of changing my oil, plugs, replacing my battery. I'm limited to the basics. I've never worked on a jeep before other then replacing the battery and changing the oil!!
