Do you think I should just go ahead and replace the fan?
/quote]Not yet but if it blows it again with no reason.. like getting mud or weeds in it,.. then having it tested at least would be a good idea. Me..I'd replace it if it ever blew a fuse again just for GP. Keep an eye on it. Overheating is the #2 cause of engine failure for CFM. #1 is particle ingestion from POS OE air filters.

Good. Just keep in mind fuses blow because the load down-stream is higher then it's rating. This can mean the fan motor is pulling more then it should and if so, will go out sometime as well as blow that fuse again.

Thanks so much for your help I appreciate it.Quote from: Jelly777 on May 19, 2023, 08:09:40 PMAssuming you have checked the fuse and its not blown, jumper the thermoswitch and test for power at the fan motor. If there is 12 volts on the power line, and the ground wire is grounded, replace the fan motor. If no power at the motor, and there is power on the relay's line terminal, replace the fan relay.Quote from: NMKawierider on May 13, 2023, 04:30:05 PMQuote from: Jelly777 on May 13, 2023, 04:25:45 PM2017s still use the thermo switch. 90% of them go bad. It's the only thing on the radiator that has wires going to it. Unplug it at the connector and jumper the harness side, then turn on the key. If the fan cones on, replace it...and also make sure the coolant is to the very top of the radiator at the cap..no air gap. If the thermoswitch is exposed to air, it won't work either.
