In this video I show the steps and procedures necessary to replace the fan clutch on a Nissan titan. This procedure is the same for a Nissan Armada as well. In this particular instance the vehicle experience in overheating condition at idle. Also the AC would blow warm during extended idle periods. The procedure is relatively straightforward and does not require special tools to replace it. I hope this videos help you out if it has please like and subscribe. If you have any questions feel free to leave something in the comment section. Thank you for watching
Fan clutch used in this video:

Great video, thank you. The information regarding the fan clutch is spot on. Mine is being changed today. FYI, my air conditioning temperature gets warmer sitting at idle. Makes sense if it's not working. Thank you!
You're videos are pretty easy to watch and follow and being willing to help is awesome 👌. Great job! Keep it up!
Glad to help!
Aaron your awesome! When I installed my CSF radiator 4 months ago 3 of the 4 fan nuts were only hand loosened. I could turn them by hand, scary huh! So I used some LTite and reinstalled the fan but I never considered the clutch! My AC i is great while moving , at idle it warms up so guess I need to replace it because it does move freely which I thought was a good thing! It’s 10 years old from Florida so its best by now! OEM clutch ok, appreciate your great work!
thanks for the support! i also found a few loose ones before on company trucks. its scary to think they went too far from becoming loose.
Thanks for the instructions. I just finished replacing the fan clutch in my 2014 Titan. I ended up stripping the heads on a couple of the nuts. Ended having to use locking vice grips to get the rounded heads off. After that, however, taking off the old fan clutch and putting on the new one was fairly easy. I used blue thread lock to make sure the nuts won't come loose to easily.
What are the specs on the replacement nuts? Can they be found at a local auto parts? Dealers in town take too long to order. Thanks.
@@yekra2900 I forgot the specs, but I was able to buy replacement nuts (I had lost a few) at O'Reilly's. They're a standard size that can be bought almost anywhere.
@@slworking2 sounds good. thanks for your help.
@@yekra2900 No problem. Just bring one with you and you should be able to match it up.
You are the man thanks for all the help I just replaced my rad with a aluminum 3 core from champion not bad at all thanks to your videos
Would the clutch be the reason for idel overheating if the rad line has been burped, new thermostat, hoses are good and coolant levels are up to par?
Do you remember what size bolts you used to replace on the fan clutch? Mine is missing one of the studs and the nut. Thankbyou
How did u get the bolts of with it free spinning
Have you changed the fan clutch bracket? It has some special bolts on there hard to get off any idea?
My 2007 Titan is making a swooshing noise when initially accelerating. Sounds like i am driving a 18 wheeler but am not. Seems to not have all the V8 power as well. Then it stops making the noise around 40 miles per hr or so and it sounds and drives like a normal V8 again. Fan Clutch issue?
my truck is getting hot at idle too, need to check mine, good pointers
Why the clutch? Can it just be solid mounted? Just weld the shaft lol
I am curious, it appears the fan is pitched to blow away from the engine. Is that correct? And if so can you explain why it would try to blow air out when the airflow blows inward when in motion. The only thing I can assume is that the clutch free wheels when the vehicle is in motion and only drives air when the vehicle in running while stopped.
my car overheats when i turn the ac on and its at idle but if i rev it up it cools down does that sound like a fan clutch it started after i got my ac recharged at a shop
Heyy how you fix it My Truck Stsrd Doing The Same Thing Today
The fan in my truck wobbles around and makes lots of noises when it’s on, would replacing this part you just replace is going to fix all my problems or do I need to place something else?
The new fan clutch holes are bigger than the old one. Did you use the same bolts?
Have you ever heard a high pitched sound that goes from high to low coming from the front end of the Titan? Do you think it could be the fan clutch?
Hi there.
I need your help.
I have a Nissan armada and its too heavy, the fuel consumption is too much and it has a lot of Misfire, the acceleration is delayed. How can you help me?
Same truck, seems it's leaking oil from fan clutch, is that possible?
Is there a part number for this particular fan clutch
Do you know where the relay is for the ac condenser I have a 2010 titan and its barely blowing and sometimes ac blows hot
Great video!! One of the best I've seen. Quick and to the point.
My fan clutch is stuck always on. 9000 miles on a Titan XD 5.6v8. Someone on a forum mentioned something about a sensor that can activate the clutch went out on theirs twice...is this not just a mechanical clutch? I wonder because when I would shut off the AC it seemed to allow the clutch to disengage after a few seconds...never heard of a semi-mechanical fan clutch before or was this just coincidence?
what about overheating only with ac on while idle
Bad AC condenser fan.
Thank you sir.
Got any torque specs?
I see an all aluminum radiator..is it a 2 or 3 row? How is it doing? Any clearance issues?
It’s a 2 row. CSF is the brand and it’s been on for about 2 years now. Clearance is a little tight, specially with the air aid cold air intake. But it fits. Fan shroud was a little tough to get on but no major issues. Temp never gets above 200 and that’s with the stock thermostat and in the Arizona heat.
I’m hoping you can solve my problem. I have a 2006 titan and the radiator fan is running as soon as I start the truck and stays running the whole time the truck runs.I just changed my coolant, thermostat and fan clutch. Thanks!
Did you figure it out? Same issues
@@wp2245 unfortunately no, I ended up selling it, not bcoz of the problem but bcoz I got a good offer on it. Good luck with your truck, it’s a good truck!
@@kadaddy4038 Thanks for the reply years later bud and that’s awesome to hear about your offer. Yeah I love it, just little by little tryna get her right
Need help?? The temp needle on my truck fluctuates then goes just below the H driving on highway and city specially with the ac on... my fan clutch seem to be engaged all the time and also I can spin it with very little resistance. Can that be the problem?
if it is heating at highways speeds. that tells me airflow isnt an issue. if the clutch was bad, you would be overheating at idle and low speeds. sounds like a thermostat or low coolant issue to me. im assuming you have checked the coolant level?
@@AaronHinesAuto I replaced the thermostat with an aftermarket one it's a 180° and did checked the coolant.. level is good...
So my AC on my Titan only gets cold when driving at higher speeds. Think my condenser fan is dead. Should it run when my engine is on? Or only when driving?
The condenser fan is activated when pressures in the high side of the AC system had reached a certain pressure. This sensor is located in front of the condenser next to the fan itself. Anytime the AC is on in the system has a full charge of Freon the fan normally should be operating. There is also a separate 40 amp fuse for the condenser fan in the engine compartment fuse box. It’s labeled radiator fan, and it’s a part of three fuses that are one unit. The color of the fuse is Green. Also check that. am making a video this weekend How to diagnose a bad condenser fan. I’ll send you the link when I upload it.
Aaron Hines I checked that fuse yesterday didn’t appear to be blown. No black or popped look. But I’m not an expert when it comes to fuses. I would greatly appreciate that video! I look forward to it. Thanks for the info.
It failed on my 2011 Titan yesterday 85k on it! Never had this problem on my last GMC Denali makes me sad
Hello good video I have a 2004 Nissan Titan that overheats when it tow no check engine light what I did notice is at idle my temp is around 195 to 200 even when driveing stays similar I noticed when engine gets to 180 degrees I can here the clutch fan engaging and moving air but intermittently when I go above 3k rpm sounds like the clutch gets quiet not moveing enough air then I hear it and temp drops fast have you seen them fail like that or is that a sign it's going out I ran it under hot water and turn it and the resistance doesn't change and seems slight play when hot
the job of the fan clutch is to move are through the radiator at idle and low speeds when the truck is up to temp. sounds like its doing just that. 195-200 at idle is normal and good. how hot is the coolant getting? your electric condensor fan should be on when the coolant is above 212 degrees. does it turn on? check out this video i made for testing the condernsor/radiator fan.
ruclips.net/user/edit?o=U&video_id=uVJ9eCoXZ_w
@@AaronHinesAuto Yes AC fan turns on got out when truck was running hot to verify. My truck never overheats , except when going up steep grades or when towing up grades. Coolant temps get up to 230 degrees no engine codes or lights on already drained flushed and burped radiator. I did notice that when going up the grades when towing in 3 Rd or 4th gear at around 3 to 3500 rpm my clutch fan is no longer audible and my temps start to rise intermittently I'll hear the clutch fan engage at times and temp will drop . Took it to 3 different shops and they say cooling system checks fine I almost thinking of takeing to the dealer but afraid they will say the same thing only occurs when going up grades while towing. Any thoughts
could be the clutch is not able to pull and stay engaged after 3k. however i have seen aftermarket thermostats not fully open and end up restricting water full. so at idle its fine but when your engine is putting off alot of heat, the cooling system cant keep up, sounds like the issue your having. i would also do these tests do rule out a clogged radiator.
1. Feel the upper and lower radiator hoses when the engine is overheating. If the lower radiator hose is hot when the engine is overheating, you know the thermostat is open.
2. Make sure the radiator and the condenser are clean and the foam seals are in place so the air flow is directed across the radiator.
3. Take the upper and lower radiator hoses off and put a 5 gallon bucket below the lower radiator outlet. Put a garden hose in the top of the radiator and see how much water will flow through the radiator in 1 minute. A good radiator should be able to flow about 5 gallons of water through it in one minute.
4. If the lower radiator hose is cold when the problem occurs, then the thermostat is not open - whether the new thermostat is defective or there is an air pocket getting behind the thermostat.
hope that helps
@@AaronHinesAuto it does thanks for the help bought used so working through the kinks I ordered the stillen radiator and I'm going to put oem tstat while system is open
Are those 10mm nuts reverse threaded?
No
My truck fan clutch is always engaged taking away power and truck seem sluggish. Is my fan clutch bad my truck does not over heat truck temp is normal
I have seen a few aftermarket clutches come out of the box like this. But not an oem unit. But that’s not to say that can’t happen. With engine off can you turn the fan with your fingers? Sounds like it’s locked all the time
Aaron Hines I changed the fan clutch and now its adjusting now.
@@kevinhairston1024 did you fix the problem?
Mine is very noisy and when the noise is "on" i feel the engine has no power and Also i feel like i'm getting less miles per galon than it should be.
¿was the same thing with your truck?
@@lucianomacedo5100 it's your fan clutch change it and problem should go away
@@kevinhairston1024 thanks,i'll do it.
My 04 over heats while the ac is on. I’ve replaced the thermostat. All fuses are fine. Coolant levels are good and no leaks. Fan clutch?
john smith
Same. Found 3 of the fan blades broken. It is also making a vibration from that broken fan blades.
Glo Glo I’ll check the bottom fan in the morning. Radiator fan seems fine. No wobble and good resistance when you hand turn it.
Check your AC condenser fan. Its main job is to cool the AC condenser. However, if it's bad, it won't bring in enough airflow to cool your condenser and your main engine radiator (the ac condenser is in front of the engine radiator). Therefore, the main clutch fan is working double duty by cooling two hot radiators, which is not designed to handle that.
Zepper2019 the condenser fan does turn. I’m thinking it’s bad. Now if I sit still too long I can tell when it’s about to overheat because it starts to make a vibrating noise.
@@johnsmith-bz7mk the original ac condenser fans had a high rate of failure. These fans are undersized for the job, so they need to be at Tip-Top shape. It has to spin like it's sucking your face in. If it doesn't feel that powerful, the AC condenser fan may already be failing.
It could also be your main clutch fan. Though it wouldn't explain why your radiator is overheating when your AC is on. Or, perhaps they're both failing at the same time and with the stress of the AC condenser heat your main clutch fan isn't removing heat fast enough. Essentially it could be pulling double-duty and if it's the original it's old and can't do the job anymore.
Lol just checking if i put the damn thing on backwards
Nuts are tough to remove and now it’s hard for me to remove and the whole thing spins
Get a long flat head and lock pulley from the back and hold while loosening with other hand u may have a loose belt or tensioner mine did the same after removing with flat head and replacing drive belt and tensioner putting it back was really smooth
I rounded a nut fml
Have you changed the fan clutch bracket? It has some special bolts on there hard to get off any idea?
Thank you sir.
