Keep cooling air moving across the A/C condenser and radiator with the Four Seasons A/C Condenser Fan Motor / Engine Cooling Fan Motor 35389. This 2-pole motor drives the electric fan that pulls air through the heat exchangers, which matters most at idle and low speeds. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1994-1996 Chevrolet Impala, 2005 Buick LaCrosse and 1997-2005 Buick Century, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
Four Seasons lists this unit under both names, A/C condenser fan motor and radiator (engine cooling) fan motor. It is cataloged for the left and right positions, depending on the application.
- Design and performance: built to match or better O.E. design and performance
- Magnets: magnetic size and properties compare to or exceed OEM
- Windings: built to OEM winding specifications or better
- Motor speed: RPM equal to or higher than the OEM motor
Four Seasons engineers and tests its products and brings more than 50 years of mobile A/C experience to this line.
Signs this motor may need replacing include:
- a cooling fan that no longer spins or runs only intermittently
- grinding or humming from the fan area
- A/C that blows warmer at idle
- engine temperature that climbs in slow traffic
Fuses, relays, sensors and wiring can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the fan circuit before replacing the motor. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full vehicle list.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the right AC condenser fan motor for a 1997-2005 Buick Century?
Yes. Four Seasons 35389 is listed for the 1997-2005 Buick Century. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your exact vehicle.
What does the A/C condenser / engine cooling fan motor do?
It spins the electric fan that draws air through the A/C condenser and radiator. This helps carry heat away from both, especially at idle and low speeds when there is little natural airflow.
What type of motor is this?
It is a 2-pole radiator or condenser fan motor. Its windings are built to OEM specifications or better, and its RPM is equal to or higher than the OEM motor.
Which side does it mount on?
Four Seasons catalogs this motor for the left and right positions, depending on the application. The "Vehicles it fits" section shows the listing for each vehicle.
What are signs the fan motor may need replacing?
Warning signs include a fan that won't spin or runs intermittently, grinding or humming noises, warm A/C at idle, or rising engine temperature in traffic. Test fuses, relays and wiring first, since they can cause the same symptoms.
