2001 Grand Cherokee. Trying to locate the Radiator fan relay.
Can anyone help?

 

It's under the pass. side headlight.

I pulled the head light and can't find it. Is there some other way to get to it? Thanks for your help.

 

This will run you through it. http://rigs.corequipment.com/cebby_W...ling.htm#relay

 

That did it. I would never have found it without your pictures.
A 3" hole saw works perfect to cut the hole.

Thanks Dan

 

Glad to be of help.

I just found you guys an hour after I fixed the fan relay on my WJ. I was not about leaving a hole under the headlamp so I sealed a sheet of plastic across it. I found the instructions on another site and they worked fine but because the relay apparently fails regularly, I added some silicone thermal transfer compound from PCWorld (used on CPU to heatsink/socket).

It is obvious, looking at the old part, that the metal chassis will flex and break the bond without some compound so the relay will always overheat once air has separated the seating. Has anyone met the designer of this component?
