Ford Radiator Fan Motor |
The radiator is, without a doubt, the most important component in your Ford if engine cooling is concerned. It is the primary component that cools the engine coolant, which in turn is responsible for absorbing the heat generated by the engine. For the radiator to function well, however, it needs an ample amount of cool air to pass through its core—a function that the radiator itself cannot possibly do. Thus, for the radiator to function well, it needs the aid of a much simpler component called the radiator fan.
There are two basic types of radiator fans or cooling fans used in Ford vehicles. The first is the mechanical fan, which can be found on most vintage and old Ford vehicles. Mechanical fans are driven by a belt attached to the vehicle's engine and are, therefore, dependent on the engine for its operation. The other type of radiator fan, on the other hand, is the electric cooling fan. Unlike mechanical fans, electric fans are not dependent on the vehicle's engine. Instead, they are driven by a small DC motor. Also, because electric fans are not engine dependent, they can cool the engine even if the vehicle is not running.
One of the important parts that every Ford electric cooling fan is equipped with is the Ford fan motor (also called radiator fan motor). The radiator fan motor is the small DC motor that drives the radiator fan. In particular, it rotates the metal or plastic fan blades the pulls air through the radiator core. Ford fan motors are seldom operated manually. Instead, their operation is guided thermostats and heat sensors installed near the vehicle's engine, prompting them to drive the fan blades automatically when the engine starts to heat up.
Now, stock Ford fan motors are guaranteed to perform well, especially if the vehicle is still new and the motor is still at its prime. But just like other electromechanical components installed in your vehicle, this small motor will eventually deteriorate. Through time, the component may also be subjected to regular wear and tear. In due time, the fan motor may become too weak to properly serve its function well. And as it becomes weaker, it may also cause premature failure on other related components.
So if the fan motor of your Ford's radiator is already weak or has already failed, better replace it immediately and save yourself from road troubles and other costly damages. Here at Parts Train, we have a wide array of Ford fan motors that can easily fit your needs.
