Checking wiring and connectors
Before fault-tracing can begin, the engine cooling fan (FC) connector must be disconnected to prevent the engine cooling fan (FC) engaging. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) ECM-6110 Engine cooling fan (FC) control module may be stored. After fault-tracing the connector must be reconnected.
This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor freezes. This may happen if the coolant level is low or there is too little glycol in the coolant. Check the engine coolant level and its freezing point. Remedy as necessary.
Check the connector on the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor. Check for contact resistance and oxidation. Check for loose connections.
Check the ground lead between control module terminal #A60 (#A60) and engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor terminal #2. Check for an intermittent open-circuit.
HINT: The fault may have been caused by air pockets in the cooling system.
