repair procedures

radiator fan

  1. Remove the condenser fan.

    (Refer to Cooling System - "Radiator")

  2. Remove the fan (A) from the radiator.

    Tightening torque: 4.9 - 7.9 N·m

  3. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Cooling Fan Control (PWM)

  1. Remove the air duct.

    (See Intake and Exhaust System - Air Cleaner)

  2. Disconnect the cooling fan control connector (A) and the cooling fan connector (B).

  3. Remove the cooling fan control unit (A).

    Tightening torque: 2.8 - 3.3 N·m

  4. Installation is the reverse of removal.

DISASSEMBLY

  1. Remove the radiator fan (A) from the radiator fan assembly.

    Tightening torque: 2.8 - 3.3 N·m

  2. Disconnect the cooling fan motor connector (A), then remove the shroud cover (B).

    Tightening torque: 2.8 - 3.3 N·m

  3. Remove the fan motor (A) from the radiator fan shroud.

    Tightening torque: 4.9 - 8.3 N·m

  4. Install in the reverse order of removal and observe the installation notes.

TEST

Fan motor

  1. Disconnect the fan motor connector from the resistor.

  2. Connect battery voltage to the positive (+) terminal and ground the negative (-) terminal.

  3. Make sure the cooling fan motor operates correctly.
