Fan Controls
Fan Motor Test
1. Disconnect the 2-P connector from the fan motor.
2. Test the motot by connecting battery power to the
B terminal, and ground to the A terminal
3. lf the Jan motor fails to run smoothly, replace it.
NOTE: The illustration shows the radiator fan.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
Switch Test
NOTE: Bleed air from the cooling system atter install-
ing the engine coolant temperature (ECT) switch (see sec-
tion 1O).
1. Remove the ECT switch from the thermostat
housing.
2. Suspend the ECT switch in a container of coolant
as shown.
Heat the coolant and check engine coolanl tempera-
ture with a thermometer.
Check the continuity between the A and B terminals
according to the table:

Replacement
Disconnect the 3-P connector trom the vehicle speed
sensor {VSS).
Remove ihe two mounting bolts, then remove the
VSS.

1. Remove the YEL/RED wile from the engine oil pres-
sure switch.
ENGI'{E OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
Check tor continuitv between the positive torminal
and the engine {gtound) with the ignhion swhch OFF.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 3.
a lf there is no continuity, replace the switch.
Check for continuity again, this time with th€ engine
runnrng.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 4,
a lf there is no continuity, the switch is OK.
Make sure engine oil level is OK, then check engin€
oil pressure (s€e section 8).
a lf engine oil pressure is OK, replace the switch'
a lf engine oil pressure is low, check the sngine oil
pump (see section 8) and, if necessary, replac€ it.

GaugeTest
NOTE: Refer to page 23-116 fot the wiring description
oJ the engine coolant temperature (ECT) gauge circuit
diagram.
1. Check the No. 15 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash
tuse/relay box before testing.
2. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF, then discon-
nect the YEL/GRN wire from the ECT gauge send-
ing unit and g.ound it with a jumper wire.
Turn the ignition switch ON (lll.
Check that the pointer of the ECT gauge starts mov-
ing toward the "H" mark,
CAUTION: Tuln th6 ignition switch OFF botore th€
point reaches "H" on tho gaugo dial. Failuro to do
so may damago tho gaugo.
a It the pointer of the gauge does not move at all,
check Jor an oDen in rhe YEL or YEL/GRN wire.
lf the wires are OK, replsce the ECT gauge.
a It the ECT gauge works, test the ECT sending
untt.

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECTI Gauge
ECT Sending Unit Test
Disconnect the YEL/GRN wire from the ECT send-
ing unit.
With the engine cold, use an ohmmeter to measure
resistance between the positive terminal and the en-
gine (ground).
Check the temperature of the coolant.
Run the engine and measure the change in ,esistance
with the engine ai operating temperatu.e {the radi-
ator tan comes on).
5. ll the obtained readings are substantially different
Jrom the specifications above, replace the ECT send-
ing unit.

1. Shift to the ill position, and loosen the nuts.
2. Slide the switch in the direcrion of E position
[within 2.O mm (O.079 in.)l so that there is continuity
between the "A" and "L" terminals in the ranqe of

3. Recheck for continuity between each ot the ter-
minals.
NOTE:
a lf adiustment is not possible. check for damage
to the shiJt lever detent and/or the bracket. lfthere is no damage, replace the console switch.a The engine should start when the shift lever is inposition LN] in the range of free play.

Position the switch slider to "Neutral" as shown
above.
