Stock intercooler fan - amp draw?

Hi folks,
 
What is the amp draw of the stock intercooler fan?  Aftermarket 9" ones draw 7.5 amps.  I can't find the data in the bgb/wiring diagrams.
 
Cheers

    It comes off the 20 amp 'vent' fuse, havent tested it, just chucked it, but know all the others i have, my guess is yeah under but close to 10A constant, but with all motors it will draw much more on startup, so around 15+ amps for less then 1 sec.

    I wonder why it throws the error light with the 7.5amp aftermarket fans if the stock fuse is 20A. 
     
    Cool - cheers.

    if you just installed these fans.then you could likely be triggering the fan ecu fuse in the boot.
