OK I have an 04 500 4X4 and the fan doesn't seem to be working. what are the things I should check and how do I check them to see if it is good. The fuses for the fan seems to be ok.
Thanks

 

Check the fan first, put a jumper lead from a battery to the fan,s to connection points and see if it spins.

 

Fan is controlled by a thermostatic switch located on the radiator. Simply remove the two wires going into this switch, and cross them with a small piece of wire. If fan starts fan is likely good. Be sure to have the ign in the on position. If fan does not start use a test light to chech that oner of those wires has power when key is on. If no power then that is your trouble.
Usually these fans last for a few years and need to be replaced. They are expensive, I have replaced four over the years and have always gone to an automotive store and bought the smallest they have. Takes a little work, but can almost always modify it to work. I have done this on Two cats and three Kodiaks.
Good Luck

 

The fans are made by Spal, the dealer wants like $300 but if you got straight to Spals site you can get them for $80.SPAL USA

I picked up a new one on ebay for $65, you just need to know witch one, Spal makes all sizes and kinds. My 2001 uses the 9"
