I have one of the few model years with the odd as hell electric clutch fan. Seems there's some kind of relay or heater or something that's supposed to make it kick on and off while idling. The problem i have is it works properly when cold (Ice cold AC, the fan cycles on and off) but once the engine warms up, the clutch stops engaging. The AC stops working and the temperature gauge will eventually peg the top of the gauge. I revved the engine up when this happened figuring I would hear a WHOOSH from the clutch fan but all I got was a very pissed off engine because I believe it started de-fueling itself to cool down. When I put it in drive and selected first gear, the clutch fan finally kicked on at about 3000 RPM and STAYED on for almost 5 minutes of highway driving.
Can I wedge a screw into the fan clutch so it just runs none-stop until I have the money to swap it out?
