What is the Fan Clutch all about?

The fan clutch controls how quickly the cooling fan spins against the radiator. The hotter the engine gets, the more the fan has to spin. If the fan clutch is not functioning correctly, the fan won’t spin at the right speed and therefore can’t provide the cooling needed. It could spin too much and waste power coming from the engine, or spin too little and not cool the engine enough.

Keep in mind:

  • Several components can cause the fan clutch to operate incorrectly, including the fan itself.
  • The mechanic will inspect other components around the radiator and the fan clutch for proper operation when inspecting the fan clutch.

How it's done:

  • The fan shroud is removed for fan access
  • The defective fan clutch is removed
  • The new fan clutch is installed
  • The fan shroud is reinstalled
  • The proper operation of the fan clutch is checked

Our recommendation:

Have one of our expert mechanics inspect the cooling system as soon as the vehicle stops cooling effectively. The mechanic will be able to inspect the radiator, cooling fan, and the fan clutch when diagnosing the issue. Replacing the fan clutch could also make the vehicle run more efficiently. Sometimes the fan clutch can be rebuilt to make it work correctly, but often the part has to be replaced entirely.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Fan Clutch?

  • Vehicle is overheating or not cooling sufficiently
  • Rattling or vibrating in the engine compartment
  • Scraping or clicking noise coming from the engine compartment

How important is this service?

This service is important because a malfunctioning fan clutch affects the vehicle's efficiency as well as the ability to keep the engine cool. Address this problem as soon as possible if you experience any of the related symptoms.

Have a land rover free lander 2003, bought it last weekend brought it home no problem, recent seviced, yesterdy when i pulled up outside my house the engine management light came on and i didnt use it again until this morning, i got in it and when i turned the ignition it made a clunk noise and then wouldnt turn over but made a whinning noise each time i turned the key. a couple of points, when i collected the car last sunday the man said he had done oil and water etc, so i had no reason to check, however for some reason this motring i decided to check and there was oil but no water !!!! my fault for not checking when i collected, second point is that since picking it up i have had trouble with the alarm and immobilizer it takes several attempts to disarm the jeep and several combinatioona of the fob and key then eventually it will dis arm it could be posible the immobilizer isnt fully disarming or battery/alternator/starter issues ?
