Cooling Fan Inoperative (LLU)
|
Circuit/System Description
|
The engine cooling fan system is composed of one fan, 5 relays, the engine control module (ECM), and the associated wiring. The fan assembly includes two resistors, which enable the fan to operate at 3 speeds.
In low speed operation, the ECM provides ground from ECM terminal X2 44 (LDE/2H0), or terminal X2 14 (LLU). The cooling fan relay activates and provides ground to the coils of the cooling fan medium speed 2 relay and the cooling fan speed control relay. The cooling fan speed control relay activates and provides power to the coil of the cooling fan high speed relay. The cooling fan high speed relay remains inactive because ECM terminal X2 15 (LDE/2H0) or terminal X2 12 (LLU) is not grounded. The cooling fan medium speed 2 relay provides power to the cooling fan motor through cooling fan terminal 2 and the internal fan resistor.
In medium speed operation, the ECM provides ground to ECM terminal X2 15 (LDE/2H0) or terminal X2 12 (LLU). The cooling fan high speed relay remains inactive because power is not provided to the coil from the cooling fan speed control relay. The cooling fan medium speed 1 relay activates and provides power to the cooling fan motor through cooling fan terminal 3 and the internal fan resistor.
In high speed operation, the ECM provides ground to ECM terminals X2 15 and X2 44 (LDE/2H0) or terminals X2 12 and X2 14 (LLU). As previously described, power is now provided to both cooling fan terminals 2 and 3. In addition, power and ground are now provided to the coil of the cooling fan high speed relay. The Cooling Fan High Speed Relay activates and provides power to the cooling fan motor through cooling fan terminal 4.

Circuit/System Verification
|
1.
|
Verify that DTCs P0480 00, or P0481 00 are not set.
|
2.
|

3.
|
Command the Fan Relay 1 ON and OFF with a scan tool. The fan should turn ON at low speed and OFF with each command.

|
5.
|
Command the Fan Relay 2 and 3 ON and OFF with a scan tool. The fan should turn ON at medium speed and OFF with each command.
|
6.
|
If the fan does not operate correctly, go to medium speed operation malfunction.
|
7.
|
Command the Fan Relay 1, 2, and 3 ON and OFF with a scan tool. The fan should turn ON at high speed and OFF with each command.
