the green wire goes the the fan bracket, the radiator thermo/switch closes to supply a return path for the current to flow to earth when up to temprature.

ok so the green goes to the fan bolt? But I got a black cable running to the connector from the fan bracket...

the blue and black goes to blue and black one I know that..
