cooling fan just died

[LeeSHO]

just as it says, and autozone doesn't have a cooling fan for a 91 SHO, need a fan or car will overheat, question is can a 3.8 taurus fan fit a 91 SHO? or what are my other options? i really don't want to got with a used fan again cause that's what i put in last time and the fan didn't last 5 months

You sure it's the fan? The ECT can play games with the fan, and so can the ICRM/CCRM (Constant Control Relay Module).

Does the fan go on when the A/C is on? Have you tried applying B+ to the fan directly to see if it runs?

I had the same thing happen..From Ford it's close to $200...I went to an electrical shop and bought replacement "brushes" for $8...It is'nt that hard to rebuild. You need 4 "brushes". PM me if your interested in this idea....

its not a sensor, when i turn the a/c on, no fan, i had to hit it for it to come on, i had the same problem less then 5 months ago and mechanic checked everything, said it was the fan motor, put a used fan in it, worked good but now its dead and i don't want to have to open the hood in middle of traffic everytime to turn fan on

If you don't want to rebuild it you can use one from a 91 Thunderbird SC.Bolts right up.
Donr this two time on my old SHO.

mine died this winter ...... didn't notice until the weather got warm ....... solution was to rebuild motor ..... take the motor to a shop that specializes in electric motors ...... or do it yourself ....... much less costly than OEM replacement
