Function and Importance
The radiator fan plays a crucial role in the car’s cooling system by pulling air through the radiator when the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly. This airflow helps dissipate heat from the coolant circulating in the engine, thus preventing engine overheating. Over time, radiator fans may stop working due to electric motor wear or mechanical failure, leading to increased engine temperatures and potential damage if not replaced promptly.
Replacing the Sahara Fan involves disconnecting the electrical connector and removing the mounting screws or clips securing the fan assembly to the radiator. The process is straightforward, often achievable with basic hand tools and knowledge of vehicle cooling systems, making it feasible for both seasoned mechanics and motivated DIY car owners.
