Default Does a 03 Grand Cherokee only have an Electric Fan?

Quick Question:

The other day my girl took her jeep to get tuned up from this guy and to make a long story short he said that she was missing her fan set up. He said that there was only an electric fan.

Sure enough thats all there is. I know most cars have a fan that works off the crank and an electric fan, so I was taken back for a second.

my question is: is she missing a fan set up or was there only an electric fan on 03 grand cherokees?

No they didn't all have engine-driven fans. Some only had the electric fan.

I'm not sure. My '04 w/the 4.7L V8 has the tow package and the fan is driven by the power steering pump which has a cooler on it. Very strange set-up.

Actually some WJs had a belt-driven clutch fan. It shows it it in the manual.
