Don't have to remove the bumper, just take the two bolts at the top corners of the chrome grill section and then take the top radiator support brackets loose and lean everything forward. It helps to also take the coolant tank bleed hose (smaller one) loose from the tank to allow the radiator more movement and remove the hood latch assy. to give more room to get the fans out. That's the stud that he mentioned you had to work around. You can just bend the bracket that comes around the front of the latch to the rear then pull it back forward once you get the fans in place. Then just take the bolts that hold the fan assy. to the radiator out and lift the fan assembly. Be careful when pulling the fans out and putting them back in of the small coolant hose nipple (don't break it off) at the driver's side low on the radiator, where that hose that runs under the fans attaches. You have to maneuver the fan assy. to the rear a little to get it around that hose nipple. The hood latch bolts have those teeth on the captured washer that will mark the position it was in so just look for the marks and try to get it in the same place. Remember to put the upper panel on when you finish up.Takes about 30-45 min.

Was able to complete the entire job without disassembling the entire bumper. I believe that part was completely unnecessary

Bob Torrence says:

Followed your video and completed the job without issue. Great job!

Branson Lee says:

Does anyone know of the Dorman OE Soloutions is an exact fit the part says it doesn’t have a controller and I’m not sure if that’s necessary. It already has the module

Luis Segovia says:

Bought the part from 1AAuto as my way to say thank you for the video. I did remove the upper Radiator Hose at the radiator; because after 20 minutes I did not see a way to get the fan assembly out. In my opinion, draining a little coolant off the radiator and then adding it back is a lot easier than battling to get the fan assy out. Fan assembly looks practically identical to the original and it seems to be of the same or better quality. 1AAuto was not the cheapest; but, I think it was a great value. Thanks!!!

Alvin Maina says:

Is there an engine cooling fan module? if there is can anyone explain where it is? thanks

Johnatomy says:

Do the fans come out of the shroud? I don't want to buy the whole apparatus if I don't have to.

Guys I bought my dual fan radiator cooling fan from 1Aauto and was a perfect replacement however I didn't remove the front bumper/grill, just took the 6 bolts out 2 from the grill and 4 from the 2 brackets (left/right side) of the grill that is designed to attach the top part of the front grill to something solid and removed the hood latch handle only then pulled back the radiator to create separation then took the 2 upper bolts out of the plastic fan and disconnected the 2 wire assemblies, it is a trick to get out but I use small air powered ratchets and was done with new fans spinning in 30 min. 9 bolts total 2 sizes of extensions (shorter for drivers side) due to the battery. Works like a champ. Cheers.

Jonathan McGeorge says:

My wife and I done this in about an hour without removing entire bumper just removed the grill have to do alittle more wiggling to get it out but quite a bit less work then taking off entire bumper and doesn’t make it anymore difficult with the bumper on…

Jonathan McGeorge says:

Can you do this without removing the entire bumper my grill is already off but not bumper. I realize might add a little difficulty but is there a reason I would have to remove it?

Joe Smith says:

This video for changing the duel Fans was very clear easy to follow and it took me exactly 1 hour to complete the job. I cannot thank you enough you saved me $400 and I’m proud to say I did it myself.

James Colbert says:

Whats the average time it takes to change out the dual fan cooling assembly?
