Product Description

3

The cooling fan clutch is a cooling system component that controls the operation of the engine cooling fan. When the engine overheats, the radiator needs the help of the cooling fan to blow air into the device. After the engine reaches the proper operating temperature, the fan clutch will be mechanically disengaged, thus saving some power for your vehicle.

How to Judge Whether the Fan Clutch Fails

  • Engine overheating: When the fan clutch fails to engage or work properly, as a result, the engine may fail to operate at an acceptable temperature range.
  • Excessively loud cooling fans: If the fan clutch gets stuck in the engaged position, this may result in an excessively loud engine from the fan blowing at full speed.
  • Pay attention to changes in air temperature: Switch on the A/C and turn it down to the coldest setting. If it fails to cool down after several minutes, or seems to be emitting unusually warm air, there could be a problem.
  • Check the appearance of the fan clutch: Examine the unit’s general condition, you’ll be able to tell right away if something is out of place or there’s any major structural damage.
  • Spot-check for oil leaks: Run your finger along the edges of the bearing seal on the backside of the fan clutch. If it comes away with a heavy coating of oil, the culprit is either a crack or a faulty seal.

How to Replace a Bad Fan Clutch

1

Removing the Fan

Mechanically driven fans with four bolts

Loosen the bolts in the fan cover to remove the fan. After that, disconnect the fan shroud and remove the shroud. Pull out the nut that secures the fan to the pump pulley, hold the fan and pull it forward with a slight rocking motion until the fan is loose and finally comes out.

Cooling fan with large nut

Disconnect the fan sealed by the large nut. Insert it around the bolt on the pulley. Use a large wrench to turn counterclockwise to loosen the nut.

2

Disconnecting the Clutch From the Fan

Set aside the detached fan. Make sure that the shaft is up. Use the suitable socket and ratchet to remove the bolts that fasten the clutch to the fan.

3

Installing the New Fan Clutch

Align the new fan clutch in the position and secure it to the fan by tightening the bolts. After that, reassemble the fan and shroud.

The replacing steps are only for reference, and we recommend you to ask the technician to do the installation.

Just placed my original fan clutch.. My original fan clutch kept my car at 210 all the time Right on the dot but I had to replace it because the bearings in it we're starting to go bad. So I bought this one to replace it and this one does a bad job keeping my car at a cool temperature in the winter... It seems like engages when it feels like it when my car is at 235-240 and causes my car to run funny Because it's getting too hot I'm not the biggest fan of this fan clutch... Iv done nothing else to the car besides replace the clutch..

I know it said it’s for a grand Cherokee but I got it for my Cherokee. I needed it because it has more cooling capabilities than stock Cherokee clutch fan especially living here in Phoenix, az. It’s a good upgrade for your Cherokee!

Installed easily and is functional, however shaft is about an inch shorter than the stock one, so fan isn't completely enclosed in the shroud, leading to lots of whooshing noises when accelerating.

The fan clutch works great, no more overheating issues, it produce more drag to the fan than previous one all the time and subsequently a little more noise.
