Schematic Reference: Engine Cooling Schematics Connector End View Reference: Cooling System Connector End Views DEFINITION: One or both cooling fan motors are inoperative in either high, low, or both speeds. | |||
1 | Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? | Go to Step 2 | |
2 |
Do the low speed engine cooling fans turn ON and OFF with each command? | Go to Step 3 | Go to Step 4 |
3 |
Important:: A 3 second delay occurs before the powertrain control module (PCM) or engine control module (ECM) changes the cooling fan speed. With a scan tool, command the Fans High Speed ON and OFF. Do the high speed engine cooling fans turn ON and OFF with each command? | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections | Go to Step 11 |
4 |
Important: Do NOT remove the 20-amp fused jumper wire connected during this step. Use a second 20-amp fused jumper wire while performing the following steps. Do both cooling fans operate in low speed? | Go to Step 13 | Go to Step 5 |
5 |
Do both cooling fans operate in low speed? | Go to Step 14 | Go to Step 6 |
6 | Reconnect the second 20-amp fused jumper between the battery positive voltage circuit of the cooling fan S/P relay and the cooling fan motor supply voltage circuit of the cooling fan S/P relay. Does the right cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 7 |
7 |
Does the left cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 16 | Go to Step 8 |
8 | Reconnect the second 20-amp fused jumper wire from the cooling fan motor supply voltage circuit of the right cooling fan electrical connector to a good ground. Does the left cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 20 | Go to Step 21 |
9 |
Does the right cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 17 | Go to Step 10 |
10 | Reconnect the second 20-amp fused jumper wire from battery positive voltage to the left cooling fan low reference circuit of the left cooling fan electrical connector. Does the right cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 22 |
11 | Does the right cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 12 | Go to Step 15 |
12 |
Does the left cooling fan operate properly in high speed? | Go to Step 14 | Go to Step 19 |
