Product Overview
The Sahara Fan is an essential component for the cooling system of Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, ensuring efficient airflow through the radiator to maintain optimal engine temperature.

Function and Importance
This radiator fan helps regulate engine temperature by drawing cooler air through the radiator fins, preventing overheating during operation, especially in heavy traffic or hot climates. Over time, fans can wear out due to dust accumulation, bearing failure, or electrical issues, leading to insufficient cooling. Timely replacement restores proper engine cooling, protecting vital engine components from damage.

Installation Notes
Replacing the radiator fan generally requires removing the front grille or radiator shroud to access and disconnect the old fan from its electrical connector and mounting points. Installation involves securing the new fan in place and reconnecting the electrical harness, ensuring proper alignment for optimal airflow and functionality. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with vehicle cooling systems.
