16 | Probe the battery positive voltage circuit on the switch side of the cooling fan 2 relay with a test lamp connected to a good ground. Does the test lamp illuminate? | Go to Step 17 | Go to Step 33 |
17 |
Does the test lamp illuminate | Go to Step 25 | Go to Step 18 |
18 | Probe the cooling fan motor supply voltage circuit of the left cooling fan electrical connector with a test lamp that is connected to a good ground. Does the test lamp illuminate? | Go to Step 29 | Go to Step 30 |
19 |
Does the right cooling fan operate in high speed? | Go to Step 20 | Go to Step 28 |
20 |
Does the test lamp turn ON and OFF with each command? | Go to Step 23 | Go to Step 21 |
21 | Probe the battery positive voltage circuit of the cooling fan S/P relay with a test lamp that is connected to a good ground. Does the test lamp illuminate? | Go to Step 34 | Go to Step 33 |
