- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect the appropriate cooling fan relay.
- Test for 65 - 105 Ω between terminals 85 and 86.
- If less than 65 Ω or greater than 105 Ω
Replace the appropriate cooling fan relay.
- Go to next step: If between 65 - 105 Ω
- If less than 65 Ω or greater than 105 Ω
- Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
- 30 and 86
- 30 and 87
- 30 and 85
- 85 and 87
OR
- 3 and 2
- 3 and 5
- 3 and 1
- 1 and 5
- If less than infinite resistance
Replace the appropriate cooling fan relay.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Install a 20 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 V.
- Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground.
- Test for less than 2 Ω between terminals 30 and 87.
- If 2 Ω or greater
Replace the appropriate cooling fan relay.
- Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω
- If 2 Ω or greater
- All OK.
