Going through rad cooling fans
Hi,
I have a 2007 Jeep JKU with hemi swap. The original rad cooling fan crapped out a few months ago. I replaced it with a four seasons brand oem style of new fan that came without a new wiring harness/resistor so just re-used the old one. It worked fine for a few weeks and then the wiring harness/resistor crapped out and took the fan with it. So I ordered up a new napa dorman oem style fan that came with the wiring harness and installed it and it ran fine for a few weeks then crapped out today. Wiring harness and fan are toast.
In each case the fuses are good,relays are good,computer is sending a signal for the fan to turn on.
Has anyone come across similar issues with non-chrylser sourced parts?
Not really sure if im having a run of bad luck with these fans or not?
Starting to think I should try a dealer sourced fan with wiring harness but they look identical to the others ive installed.
Thanks
