What This Product Does:

Its job is to secure the fan or fan housing / duct in place, especially the rear portion of the fan or cooling shroud assembly.
Helps prevent the fan or its components from moving, vibrating, or coming loose under engine vibration or thermal expansion.
Ensures that the fan stays properly aligned relative to the radiator and ducting, maintaining proper airflow and clearances.
Acts as a safety retainer so that if other fasteners loosen, this clip helps hold the fan assembly in position (to avoid interference with other parts).

Symptoms Of A Failing Or Missing Clip:

Rattling or knocking noises from the front of the engine bay / radiator area — the fan or ducting moving slightly.
Vibration under load or at certain RPMs — loose components may vibrate.
Fan misalignment or contact between fan blades and housing or shroud edges.
Unusual airflow / cooling issues if the fan shifts position and reduces effective cooling.
Damage to adjacent components if the fan or shroud rubs on wiring, hoses, or radiator fins due to looseness.

Why Replacement Matters:

Prevents Fan Movement & Damage
Protects Cooling Efficiency
Eliminates Noises & Vibrations
Protects Surrounding Components
