'99 Jeep GC heating fan wont come on

I understand this is a common problem with these Jeeps, that the cooling fan wont come on. Its been replaced, along with the rad. cap, thermostat, and coolant. I tried resetting all the fuses but to no avail. Can anyone help me out here to fix this problem?

Possably a bad relay or temp sensor. Turn your ac on max and see if it kicks on.

whether its a 4.0 or a 4.7L, both have a mechanical fan driven by the engine. They both use a thermostatic clutch to drive the fan. The clutch might be bad.

THe electric fan is only for the AC and has nothing to do with the radiator/cooling system.

ah, I thought the four cylinder ones had eliminated the clutch fan and went to all electric. My mistake.

there was no 4 cylinder option with a grand cherokee, but of course, as always, it would be helpful if the person asking the question would actually mention the motor

grand cherokee's are the "deluxe" cherokee's, they never came with a 4 cylinder. The regular cherokee's did though. Some years.
