Nissan Repair: Nissan Fan felt, waterpump, fan belt


Question
The cooling fan on my radiator doesn't turn when i turn the car on. My car overheated last night so i'm assuming i need to put a new fan belt on. How do i do this?

Answer
Bec,

If you have a mechanical fan that is bolted to the waterpump and it does not turn means that you need a waterpump too.  If yours is electric and it does not turn on could be the temperature sensor, the fan or the relay.  Simply replace the defective parts.  If yours is mechanical it is a matter of taking the fan off with the four bolts and then the belt and waterpump.
