It happened again today and I decided to drop by an air-cond shop to have it checked. As told by the mechanic, the fan motor is the one making the sound whenever it kicks in. He further informed that if the fan doesn't work, it may cause overheating in the car.This is the fan which I am referring to:-<img src="http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x131/russ_teh/Picture002-1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Questions:-1) What do you call this fan? Electric fan? Radiator fan? Aux fan?2) Can I only change the motor (if yes, how much for new or used unit from chop shop) or should I change the whole fan unit (how much - new and chop shop)?3) Can this be repaired?Please share ideas and experiences, thanks.</p></blockquote><p></p>
