Re: [Peugeot-L] 505 SD fan clutch stuff...

Matt,

To test the fan clutch, clip a hot wire to a screwdriver and touch the commutator with it. The clutch should engage. The commutator should be shiny clean. You can clean it with steel wool on the end of a screwdriver while the engine is running and the brush holder removed. The gap should be .015" and even all round. If it doesn't work with a clean commutator and the correct gap the pulley probably needs replacement.
