The electric fan did NOT work before all this and I have no idea how long it has been since it did. I only noticed due to the over heating problems this last week. Since I can start the fan with a 12 volt battery, I will check all fuses and connections today.

What AC relay and sensor were you talking about huntingman2706217?

The new fan clutch I got at NAPA was only about $30, I think the parts store you talked to must have gotten it wrong, I can't see why they'd want to charge you $300 for that part. Easiest part to change in the whole bunch too, besides maybe the coolant sensor. Mine had some corrosion on the spring which may have been preventing it from fulling engaging.

No, the parts I bought yesterday was $300 total. The fan clutch is only $35 or so.

Dang it, a great thread that I was hoping to see what happened on the electric fan?
