VAFC2, how can i power it on to test if it works?
..like with electronics around the house? Do i need to click the button for it to turn on? Should be 12v, right? Im wondering if a old cut up cellphone charger would suffice?


Sorry, just got it used...no manual. etc. And I CAN cut the connectors right?

To test if your VAFC2 works, Ground BOTH ground wires and use ONE power wire.

Works perfect.

Computer power, i used a spare CPU fan and cut the harness to make pigtails, and then connected that harness to a CPU Fan line. and then the pigtails to the VAFC
