This is for the guys that work at service dealers.
I have been looking for my fan relay on a Jeep Grand Cherokee 2001 4.7L. I have looked behind the right head light where it should be. But it is not there. I looked every where in that location and still not have found it. I have taken out the battery tray and it is not under there. I have looked behind the vacuum resvoir and found the mounting holes but no relay. I have read that some dealers when they change the relay, they re-locate the relay. Is there a common place where they mount it? I have wasted my hole day trying to find this dam part. I have the part and know what it looks like too.

Well, come to find out the 4.7 V8 does not have a relay. But the people at the dealer did not know that. You know, if your working at the dealer wouldn't you think they would know there s***. And they are the ones charging the most. I charge a lot for my piano work but I know my s*** about pianos.

The new fan was about $800. It was a fan that runs off the power steering and DC power. My Wife's WJ has the tow package which has a differant fan than on my WJ. And the only place I was able to find a replacement fan was the dealer. So I was pretty much screwed.

It has a sencer on the block. The fan was bad. My other 2000 WJ does not have the tow package and it has a relay. Just some info.
