Vehicles are often equipped with one of three distinct types of engine cooling fans, one of which is a cooling clutch fan. Older vehicles are more likely to have a clutch-style cooling fan rather than an electric cooling fan that is controlled by a relay. The cooling fan clutch engages or disengages the cooling fan depending on the engine temperature and is typically bolted between the water pump and the fan itself. Cooling fan clutches utilize a silicone-based oil that is sealed in the clutch chamber and bi-metallic springs that are designed to release oil pressure and engage the clutch at the appropriate temperature. This also allows the fan to disengage once temperatures inside the engine compartment have stabilized, and it may also be able to slip against the resistance of air passing through the radiator while driving. This design permits the fan to spin freely, helping the engine to reach operating temperature more quickly and also reduces the load on the engine caused by driving. Fan clutches may also not respond to temperature at all, but might instead be dependent on engine RPM to activate. The fan clutch on your vehicle may suffer damage over time or can simply wear out with age, which might prevent it from operating when and how it should. Symptoms of cooling fan clutch failure include the engine running at a hotter temperature when idling or at lower speeds, or you may notice that the air conditioning performance may also drop due to a lack of airflow through the A/C condenser. Cooling fan clutch failure may also cause the fan to run all the time, or it may fail to run at all. A bad cooling fan clutch can cause overheating, poor gas mileage, excessive noise, slower acceleration, and loss of power due to the added load of a stuck fan clutch on the engine. Thermal fan clutches can often be tested by waiting until the engine reaches operating temperature, shutting off the engine, and attempting to spin the fan by hand. If the fan spins freely at operating temperature, or if it cannot be spun at all when the engine is cold, the fan clutch may have failed and needs to be replaced. Failing to replace a damaged fan clutch or other cooling system parts may lead to overheating, severe engine issues, or damage if not addressed promptly. If you are experiencing these issues check out our articles on how to replace a fan clutch and what causes engine overheating to keep your vehicle running its best. If you determine your fan clutch is no longer working, you can find a replacement cooling fan clutch for your vehicle at O'Reilly Auto Parts.

Product Description

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.
