- Ignition OFF, disconnect the cooling fan relay.
- Test for 70-110 Ω between terminals 85 and 86.
- If not within the specified range, replace the cooling fan relay.
- Measure the resistance between the terminals listed below:
- 30 and 86
- 30 and 87
- 30 and 85
- 85 and 87
The DMM should display OL.
- If less than the specified range, replace the cooling fan relay.
- Test the Fan Control Relay for less than 2 Ω between terminals 30 and 87A.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the cooling fan relay.
- Connect a 20 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and B+. Connect a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Test for less than 2 Ω between terminals 30 and 87.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the cooling fan relay.
