Radiator Fan Not Working

Asked by Doug Nov 02, 2019 at 08:19 PM about the 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Howdy, I bought a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee from a private seller. The vehicle's fan will
NOT kick and essentially overheat after about 10 minutes being on. The fan control
module/relay switch was replaced but it is still overheating. The fuse is still good and it
doesn't overheat as fast naturally when you're moving.

Does anyone have an idea what this may truly be?

For testing purposes connect the fan directly to the battery. If it doesn't come on then, it's the fan motor. Hope that helps! Jim
