I need to replace my electric cooling fan - electric is fine, seems to be burned out. I would rather not spend 300 plus for a new factory fan. Are there any aftermarket alternatives or sources to buy a used fan? I saw that somebody retrofitted a Hayden 3814 but it looks like this fan is out of stock most places that I have looked.

Thanks, Chris.

PT Cruiser has the same fan motor. Perhaps the same fan entirely, but not certain about that.

You could pretty easily swap in a derale fan like the one I tried to use on my radiator. It is two speed and I wired it into the factory AC fan wiring so it functioned just like the stock fan. You could use those zip tie things to mount it I assume

I did some sleuthing and found this cheap Taiwan knockoff for the gasser which should be the same for our CRD.

Wish me luck and thanks for the responses.

That fan attaches to the engine side of the radiator, in place of the engine driven fan.

I installed the above fan today and it works. The fan and shroud are for the gasser but the motor is identical to our CRD, including the electrical connector. It was a simple procedure to swap the fans and shroud to the new motor. It didn't work when I started the engine up and turned the AC on...but I decided to check codes and had 2 associated with the low and high speed fan relays. Cleared those and all is good.

Good to know!
It is a shame that bigger fan and shroud won't fit the front side of the CRD as it looks like it would move a lot more air.... :roll:
