Global Parts 1711747 Engine Cooling Fan Switch

Engine Cooling Fan Switch for Classic and Late-Model Applications

Global Parts 1711747 is an engine cooling fan switch used to provide temperature feedback to the engine management system. On modern vehicles, the ECM uses this signal to control A/C operation and cooling strategy; on earlier applications, it can directly shut off the compressor to help prevent failure. This part is built for a wide range of Ford Escort, Toyota Pickup, Jeep Cherokee, and other import and domestic applications.
