    clutch fans are locked to engine

    When the engine is off, the fan is locked on, there is no hyd pressure to push it to the unlocked position. so when the proper temp is reached, the hyd pressure is denied thus letting the clutch engage. this takes place from 2 items...the thermostatic switch and the time delay module. cadillac...
