RECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO
NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.
(6) Start the engine and operate at 2400 rpm.
Within ten minutes the air temperature (indicated on
the dial thermometer) should be up to 88É C (190É F).
Fan driveengagementshould have started to occur
at between 74É to 82É C (165É to 180É F). Engage-
ment is distinguishable by a definiteincreasein fan
flow noise (roaring). The timing light also will indi-
cate an increase in the speed of the fan.
(7) When the air temperature reaches 88É C (190É
F), remove the plastic sheet. Fan drivedisengage-
mentshould have started to occur at between 57É to
79É C (135É to 175É F). A definitedecreaseof fan

the defective viscous fan drive unit.
VISCOUS FAN DRIVE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
Refer to the previous section on Cooling System
Fan for removal and installation procedures of the
viscous drive unit.
Viscous Fan Drive Fluid Pump Out Require-
ment:After installing anewviscous 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.
AUXILIARY ELECTRIC COOLING FANÐXJ MODELS
WITH 4.0L 6-CYLINDER ENGINE
OPERATION
XJ models equipped with a 4.0L 6-cylinder engine
may also have an auxiliary electrical cooling fan.
This is with models that have air conditioning and/or
heavy duty cooling. The fan is controlled by the cool-
ing fan relay, which is located in the power distribu-
tion center (PDC). For the location of relay within
the PDC (Fig. 41), refer to the label on PDC cover.
When coolant temperature is above 88ÉC (190ÉF),
the powertrain control module (PCM) provides a
ground path for the fan relay. This ground is pro-
vided through pin/connector #31 of the PCM 60-way
connector. Battery voltage is then applied to the fan
through the relay. When coolant temperature is be-
low 88ÉC (190ÉF), the PCM opens the ground path to
the relay. This will prevent the cooling fan from be-
ing energized.
Whenever the air conditioning is operated, the
PCM engages the auxiliary cooling fan. It provides aground path to the cooling fan relay. This ground is
provided through pin/connector #31 of the PCM 60-
way connector.
DIAGNOSIS AND RELAY TESTING
The powertrain control module (PCM) will enter a
diagnostic trouble code (DTC) number 35 in memory
if it detects a problem in the auxiliary cooling fan re-
lay or circuit. This will be read as a flashing signal
at the instrument panel mounted Malfunction Indica-
tor Lamp (displayed on the instrument panel as the
CHECK ENGINE lampÐfigure 42). Refer to On-
Board Diagnostics in Group 14, Fuel Systems for in-
formation on accessing a DTC.
The DTC can also be accessed through the DRB
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate Powertrain Diag-
Fig. 41 PDCÐXJ Models

tor.
TRANSMISSION OIL COOLERS
WATER-TO-OIL COOLER
All models equipped with an automatic transmis-
sion are equipped with a transmission oil cooler
mounted internally within the radiator tank. This in-
ternal cooler is supplied as standard equipment on
all models equipped with an automatic transmission.
Transmission oil is cooled when it passes through
this separate cooler. In case of a leak in the internalradiator mounted transmission oil cooler, engine cool-
ant may become mixed with transmission fluid or
transmission fluid may enter engine cooling system.
Both cooling system and transmission should be
drained and inspected if the internal radiator
mounted transmission cooler is leaking.
Also refer to the section on Transmission Air-to-Oil
Coolers. This auxiliary air-to-oil cooler is an option
on most engine packages.
REPLACING WATER-TO-OIL COOLER IN
RADIATOR SIDE TANK
The internal transmission oil cooler located within
the radiator is not serviceable. If it requires service,
the radiator must be replaced.
Once the repaired or replacement radiator has
been installed, fill the cooling system and inspect for
leaks. Refer to the Refilling Cooling System and Test-
ing Cooling System For Leaks sections in this group.
If the transmission operates properly after repairing
the leak, drain the transmission and remove the
transmission oil pan. Inspect for sludge and/or rust.
Inspect for a dirty or plugged inlet filter. If none of
these conditions are found, the transmission and
torque convertor may not require reconditioning. Re-
fer to Group 21 for automatic transmission servicing.
AIR-TO-OIL COOLER
An auxiliary air-to-oil transmission oil cooler is
available with most engine packages.
On XJ and YJ models, the cooler is located in front
of the radiator or A/C condenser (if equipped) and be-
hind the grill (Figs. 44, 45 or 46). It is mounted to
the front frame crossmember.
