All I know is, it seems it has had some wiring done by the dealership. When I was running the A/C before it leaks out, the Aux fan kicks on as soon as the A/C is turned on. I don't know if that is at the cost of it not working with engine temp?

I am going to make this my priority to get it replaced. Might be a junkyard run for me as $120 + new 9 blade fan is pretty steep.

I'll check later today if the fan stops spinning when the engine is turned off.

I do remember when I took it out a few months back, there was a "little" slack. I believe I posted a thread, but didn't get any responses. Maybe that is why? The slack was inside the engine, not on the clutch though. How much slack should there be?

Do you know where it is to jumper the aux fan? (might be good to know in case this happens again until I can get a new clutch)
