CAUTION:

The electronically controlled viscous fan drive is vibration and impact sensitive, especially at the electrical connectors. Do not drop the unit.

  1. Install the fan blade assembly (1) to the electrically controlled viscous fan drive (3). Tighten the mounting bolts (2) to 24 N.m (18 ft. lbs.) torque.

  2. Position the fan/fan drive assembly inside fan shroud (1).
  3. Install the electrical connector bracket (2) by sliding the connector bracket (2) into the fan shroud (1) and engaging the retainer clip.
  4. Tilt the fan shroud/fan blade toward front of vehicle and position the fan shroud/fan blade as an assembly into the engine compartment.
  5. Engage the fan shroud lower retaining clips.
  6. Install the fan blade/fan drive assembly to the fan pulley by turning the mounting nut clockwise (as viewed from front). The threads on the viscous fan drive are RIGHT-HAND.  A 36 MM Fan Wrench can be used. Place a bar or screwdriver between the fan pulley bolts to prevent pulley from rotating. Tighten the mounting nut to 115 N.m (85 ft. lbs.) torque.

    NOTE:

    Viscous Fan Drive Fluid Pump Out Requirement: After installing a new viscous fan drive, bring the engine speed up to approximately 2000 RPM and hold for approximately two minutes. This will ensure proper fluid distribution within the drive.

  15. Start the vehicle and check for proper clearance between the fan blade assembly and the fan shroud.
