My isuzu rodeo overheated the mechanic replaced the fan clutch whats the electric fan behind the radiator for can anyone tell me

1995 Isuzu Rodeo is equipped with a belt driven fan with a viscous fan clutch for engine cooling. The electric fan is for A/C condensor cooling only. The condensor fan is switched on and off by the A/C fan relay, which is operated by the triple pressure switch located in the A/C line on the left side of the engine compartment.



DO NOT attempt to replace the triple pressure switch without first using the proper equipment to evacuate and recover the freon in the A/C system. The A/C system is under high pressure and attempts to replace parts without discharging the system can result in serious injury.

if it overheats quickly, you may have a blown heat gasket - if it overheats slowly, check your fan clutch - if it is worn out the fan won't turn fast enough - also check inside the radiator to see if the passages are clogged - if there is a lot of build up around the openings then you will need to replace the radiator or take it to a radiator shop and have the top removed so they can clean out the passages - also make sure there is nothing obstructing the flow of air through the radiator like leaves or paper that might have blown up from the road - good luck and have a nice day :O)

Have you tested out your fans? Check your fuses and the actual fuse box. Could be a bad fuse or bad fuse box because I had that happen to me. The fuse was okay (it still had some kind of power going to it ) but the actual box underneath was melted.

check the thermostat could be stuck ,
also check coolant level in the radiator (after engine has cooled down)
check for fan operation either fan clutch or electric cooling fan.

make sure you are using the right firing order and all the plugs are good i head this problem could just need to adjust the timing just a bit

check the electric fan conector plug some times is rusti scratchet whit a sharp scruwdriver remove the rusti or dirt on it this happens many times and step two check the relay and thats it (this is the first step a mecanic to search)

replace fan clutch

Yes, if the fan clutch is bad, the car may overheat, especially when going uphill, check for a replacement or repair the esisting one filling it back with new silicona.

it sounds like you need a new Radiator or you are leaking coolant and thats why its overheating, check your rad fins and then your coolant level

Check to see if there is water in the oil...If there is water in the oil then it could have a head gasket problem..Did you ever replace the thermostat? If it is stuck then it would also cause overheating...Excessive exhaust backpressure because of a clogged catalytic converter could also cause overheating..Also check belt tension and condition. A loose belt that slips may prevent the water pump from circulating coolant fast enough and/or the fan from turning fast for proper cooling...Another thing it could be is a faulty Water pump -- Any wobble in the pump shaft or seepage would call for replacement. In some instances, a pump can cause an engine to overheat if the impeller vanes are badly eroded due to corrosion or if the impeller has come loose from the shaft. The wrong pump may also cause an engine to overheat. Some engines with serpentine drive belts require a special water pump that turns in the opposite direction of those used on the same engine with ordinary V-belts... Also check the Fan -- With mechanical fans, most overheating problems are caused by a faulty fan clutch, though a missing fan shroud can reduce the fan's cooling effectiveness by as much as 50% (depending on the fan's distance from the radiator) which may be enough to cause the engine to overheat in hot weather or when working hard.
