  • If the fuse is melt:
    • Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground.
    • Replace the fuse.
  • If the fuse is deterioration:
    • Replace the fuse.
  • If all fuses are normal:
    • Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit.

Go to Step 15.
4 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE RELAY PRIMARY POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND OR OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Fan control module relay is removed.

  • Measure the voltage between fan control module relay terminal D and body ground.
  • Is the voltage B+  ?
 Yes Go to the next step.
No Inspect the ENGINE IG 15 A fuse.
  • If the fuse is melt:
    • Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground.
    • Replace the fuse.
  • If the fuse is deterioration:
    • Replace the fuse.
  • If the fuse is normal:
    • Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit.

Go to Step 15.
5 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE RELAY 
  • Switch the ignition to off.
  • Inspect the fan control module relay.

    (See RELAY INSPECTION .)

  • Is there any malfunction?
 Yes Replace the fan control module relay, then go to Step 15.
No Go to the next step.
6 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR CONDITION 
  • Disconnect the fan control module connector.
  • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
  • Is there any malfunction?
 Yes Repair or replace the terminal and/or connector, then go to Step 15.
No Go to the next step.
7 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Fan control module relay is removed.
  • Fan control module connector is disconnected.
  • Inspect for continuity between fan control module terminal 1A (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
  • Is there continuity?
 Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the following:
  • Loose or lift ground point
  • Open circuit between fan control module and ground

Go to Step 15.
8 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND 
  • Fan control module relay is removed.
  • Fan control module connector is disconnected.
  • Inspect for continuity between fan control module terminal 1C (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
  • Is there continuity?
 Yes Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground, then go to Step 15.
No Go to the next step.
9 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Fan control module relay is removed.
  • Fan control module connector is disconnected.
  • Inspect for continuity between fan control module relay terminal C (wiring harness-side) and fan control module terminal 1C.
  • Is there continuity?
 Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to Step 15.
10 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE AND FAN CONTROL MODULE RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND 
  • Fan control module relay is removed.
  • Fan control module connector is disconnected.
  • Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground:
    • Fan control module relay terminal B
    • Fan control module terminal 1B
  • Is there continuity?
 Yes If the short to ground circuit could be detected:
  • Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground.

If the short to ground circuit could not be detected:

Go to Step 15.
No Go to the next step.
11 INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION 
  • Disconnect the PCM connector.
  • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
  • Is there any malfunction?
 Yes Repair or replace the terminal and/or connector, then go to Step 15.
No Go to the next step.
12 INSPECT FAN CONTROL MODULE AND FAN CONTROL MODULE RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY 
  • Fan control module relay is removed.
  • Fan control module and PCM connectors are disconnected.
  • Switch the ignition to ON (engine off).
