    2008 fan motor trouble

    My wife's 2008 v6 mustang is having trouble over heating due to the electric fan not kicking in when it is supposed to. I have replaced the relay under the dash twice and it continues to not work properly. Has anyone else heard of this or had this problem?

    How about the temp sensor. Did you try having codes read?

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.

    Re: 2008 fan motor trouble

    Had that problem on our 2011 Flex. Had to replace the fan. Fan controller is embedded in the fan motor. Ford wanted $800 to do it. Bought new Ford OEM fan from RockAuto for $200 and it took 20 minutes to install.
    Not sure if yours is same but probably is.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
