4: Radiator Fan and Condenser Fan Do Not Change Speed or Stop
Inspection Procedure 4: Radiator fan and condenser fan do not change speed or stopRadiator Fan and Condenser Fan Drive Circuit.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
^ The fan control module is powered from fusible link number 5.
^ The ECM
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The fan control module has variable control of the radiator fan motor and the condenser fan motor speeds using signals transmitted from the ECM
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
^ Malfunction of fan control relay
^ Malfunction of fan control module
^ Malfunction of ECM
^ Malfunction of ECM
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tool: MB991223: Harness Set
STEP 1. Check the fan control relay.
Refer to Fan Control Relay Continuity Check.
Q: Is the fan control relay in good condition?
YES: Go to Step 2.
NO: Replace the part, then go to Step 6.
STEP 2. Check the harness wire between fan control relay connector A-1 3X and fan control module connector A-30.
Q: Are the harness wire between fan control relay connector A-1 3X and fan control module connector A30 damaged?
YES: Repair or replace the part, then go to Step 6.
NO: Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. Check the circuit at ECM connector C-109 <2.4L M/T>, C-111 <3.0L-M/T>or PCM connector C-110 <2.4L-A/T>, C-112 <3.0L-A/T>.
1. Connect ECM connector C-109 <2.4L-M/T>, C-111 <3.0L-M/T> or PCM connector C-110 <2.4L-A/T>, C-112 <3.0L-A/T>.
2. Start the engine and run it at idle. [Engine coolant temperature: 80°C (176°F) A�]
3. Measure the voltage between terminal number 21 <2.4L-M/ T> or 18 <2.4L-A/T, 3.0L> and ground.
Q: Is the voltage 0 - 0.3 volt when radiator fan is not operating?
YES: Go to Step 6.
NO: Go to Step 4.
STEP 4. Check the harness wire between ECM connector C-109 <2.4L-M/T>, C-111 <3.0L-M/T>or PCM connector C110 <2.4L-A/T>, C-112 <3.0L-A/T> and fan control module connector A-30.
NOTE: If intermediate connector C-06 is damaged, repair or replace it.
Q: Are the harness wires between ECM connector C-109 <2.4L-M/T>, C-111 <3.0L-M/T>or PCM connector C-110 <2.4L-A/T>, C-112 <3.0L-A/T> and fan control module connector A-30 damaged?
YES: Repair or replace them, then go to Step 6.
NO: Go to Step 5.
STEP 5. Check the fan control module at ECM connector C-109 <2.4L-M/T>, C-111 <3.0L-M/T>or PCM connector C110 <2.4L-A/T>, C-112 <3.0L-A/T>.
1. Connect ECM connector C-109 <2.4L-M/T>, C-111 <3.0L M/T> or PCM connector C-110 <2.4L-A/T>, C-112 <3.0L-A/T>.
2. Turn the ignition switch to " ON" position.
3. Pull out the terminal number 21 <2.4L-M/T> or 18 <2.4L-A/ T. 3.0L> and connect it to the body ground.
Q: Do the radiator fan motor and condenser fan motor stop?
YES: Replace the ECM
NO: Replace the radiator fan motor and fan control module assembly. Then go to Step 6.
STEP 6. Check the symptoms. Q: Do the radiator fan and condenser fan operate correctly?
YES: This diagnosis is complete.
NO: Return to Step 1.
