DEFINITION: The auxiliary cooling fan is inoperative.

Did you perform the Engine Cooling Diagnostic System Check?

Go to Step 2

Go to Diagnostic System Check - Engine Cooling

1. Install a scan tool.
2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
3. With a scan tool, command the auxiliary cooling fan ON and OFF.

Does the auxiliary cooling fan turn ON and OFF with each command?

Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems

Go to Step 3

1. Disconnect the Pusher fan relay.
2. Install a jumper wire between the battery positive voltage circuit and the auxiliary cooling fan motor supply voltage circuit on the switch side of the Pusher fan relay.

Does the fan operate?

Go to Step 7

Go to Step 4

Did the fuse open when the jumper was installed?

Go to Step 5

Go to Step 6

Inspect the auxiliary cooling fan supply voltage circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 19

Go to Step 15

1. With the jumper wire still in place, unplug the auxiliary cooling fan.
2. With a test lamp connected to a good ground probe the auxiliary cooling fan motor supply voltage circuit at the pusher relay.

Does the test lamp illuminate?

Go to Step 19

Go to Step 12

With a test lamp connect to a good ground probe the battery positive voltage circuits at the pusher relay.

Does the test lamp illuminate?

Go to Step 8

Go to Step 9

1. With a test lamp connected to battery positive, probe the auxiliary cooling fan relay control circuit at the pusher relay.
2. With a scan tool command the auxiliary cooling fan ON.

Does the test lamp illuminate?

Go to Step 13

Go to Step 10

Repair the battery positive voltage circuit of the auxiliary fan relay for a short to ground or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
