'B So, he's got a fan switch already. All he has to do is mimic that

Sorry you are wrong. I of course cannot see what he has but most thermostats
use a Y to G internal connection inside to run the fan when the A/C comes on.
if you parallel that, whenever you run the new switch you will run the A/C
and damage it.
