Can they be rebuilt?
Thanks,

My memory is a little fuzzy on the GLHS fans but IIRC the 1986 GLHS used a Hayden fan motor and the 1987 GLHS used a Chrysler sourced fan motor.

I would take your bad motor to the j/yard and start comparing it to other Chrysler FWD fan motors. Perhaps you can find one that will bolt right in.

The 1987 GLHS is probably the most parted out Whittier car so you can always keep your eyes open for a used one for sale.

PS- Are you sure the fan motor is bad and not the relay? I've replaced many relays but never a fan motor on the S cars.

I tried to bench test the fan in the car,.. and it did not work, but after I took it out today, and was able to test it out of the car it did work, I will change the relay, as well as the temp. sensor by the thermostat, as well as check the wires for a bad connection.
Thanks,
Steve
