The Ford cooling fan gives assistance to the engine cooling system of your vehicle, helping to keep the engine at a safe temperature to prevent overheating. The cooling system in your vehicle uses a very efficient process to moderate the temperature of the engine, circulating a coolant liquid through the engine to remove heat, then passing the liquid through the vehicle radiator to dissipate the heat it has collected from the engine. As the liquid coolant is passing through the radiator cooling cores, the heat is removed with the assistance of a flow of cool air that comes into the engine compartment through the grille, passing through the radiator on its way.
This airflow is created by the motion of the vehicle as it travels, or pulled in by the Ford cooling fan as the vehicle is idling or moving slowly. The Ford cooling fan is often operated by an electric motor, switching on when the temperature of the air in the engine compartment rises to a level that indicates the need for engine cooling.
The electric powered Ford cooling fan is common in front-wheel drive vehicles and most late model vehicles. Some vehicles use a belt driven Ford cooling fan, using a pulley mounted on the engine and a serpentine belt to rotate the fan blade, taking its power directly from the engine. Often these systems are equipped with a thermostatic device to slow the rotation when cooling is not necessary, conserving engine power.
