Global Parts 1711691 Engine Cooling Fan Switch

Engine Cooling Fan Switch for GM Cooling Control

Global Parts 1711691 is an engine cooling fan switch used to provide feedback to the engine management system. On modern vehicles, the ECM uses this signal to manage A/C operation; on earlier systems, the switch can directly shut off the compressor to help prevent compressor damage. It is a direct-fit cooling control component for select Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac applications.

Key Features

• Engine cooling fan switch for electronic cooling and A/C control
• Black connector color for straightforward identification
• 2-terminal female connector design
• Built for select GM vehicles including Chevrolet Lumina APV, Oldsmobile Silhouette, and Pontiac Trans Sport
• Global Parts part number 1711691

Detailed Description

This Global Parts engine cooling fan switch is designed for vehicles that rely on switch feedback to coordinate engine management and air conditioning operation. In ECM-controlled systems, the switch helps the control module determine when to manage the A/C system. In earlier designs, it can be used to interrupt compressor operation before conditions lead to compressor failure. Part number 1711691 is listed for 1993-1995 Chevrolet Lumina APV, 1993-1995 Oldsmobile Silhouette, and 1993-1995 Pontiac Trans Sport.

This part cross-references Four Seasons 20914 for the same application.
