well if you have a test light, check to be sure the ground and power are good.

wait, read the schematic. you aren't supposed to ground 86. you put it to a hot lead. either always hot or hot in run! there's your problem

Yes, a simple toggle can be used. As can a factory style fan switch. Or both. And an AC lead (assuming it grounds). I like automated fans because I forget stuff, lol. I would personally used high & low temp triggers for dual fans, but this will work well if a single trigger is to be used. On the dual setup each fan has its own power lead so if there is a failure (blown breaker/link) the other still works.
If you decide to use links a 10g power lead should be protected by a 14g link. Breakers can be also used. Fuses don’t always work well because they don’t like the initial voltage spike when the fans come on. Just my experience.

i dont have an ac so i can just run it to the switch i guess. i am so pathetic. am i the only one that can work on anything with little to no problems but when it comes to working on your own stuff you suddenly become an idiot?

You can eliminate the fan switch, the toggle switch and/or the AC switch. You just need one of them. Notice they are spliced into the same circuit. That is the ‘trigger circuit’.
