STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COOLANT SERVICE
For engine coolant recommended service schedule,
(Refer to LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/MAIN-
TENANCE SCHEDULES - DESCRIPTION).
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ADDING
ADDITIONAL COOLANT
The pressure/vent cap should not be removed
from the coolant recovery pressure container
when the engine is hot.When additional coolant is
needed to maintain this level, it should be added to
the coolant recovery pressure container (Fig. 1). Use
only 50/50 mix of ethylene glycol type antifreeze and
distilled water. For the recommeded antifreeze/cool-
ant type (Refer to LUBRICATION & MAINTE-
NANCE/FLUID TYPES - DESCRIPTION).
CAUTION: Do not use well water, or suspect water
supply in cooling system. A 50/50 ethylene glycol
and distilled water mix is recommended. For the
recommeded antifreeze/coolant type (Refer to
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/FLUID TYPES -
DESCRIPTION).
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COOLANT LEVEL
CHECK
NOTE: Do not remove pressure/vent cap for routine
coolant level inspections.
The coolant reserve system provides a quick visual
method for determining the coolant level without
removing the pressure/vent cap.With the engine
cold and not running,simply observe the level of
the coolant in the coolant recovery pressure container
(Fig. 2). The coolant level should be between the MIN
and MAX marks.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COOLING SYSTEM
FILLING
(1) Remove pressure vent cap from coolant recov-
ery pressure container.
(2) Loosen air bleed screw on the thermostat hous-
ing (Fig. 9).
(3) Slowly fill the cooling through the coolant
recovery pressure container until a steady stream of
coolant comes out of the air bleed.
(4) Tighten the air bleed screw.

(5) Continue filling coolant recovery pressure con-
tainer until level reaches the full line.
(6) Without installing the pressure/vent cap, start
and run engine at idle for a couple minutes.
(7) Recheck coolant level and fill as necessary.
(8) Install pressure/vent cap and drive vehicle for
approx. 10 km to reach normal operating tempera-
tures.
(9) Allow vehicle to cool. Check and fill coolant as
needed.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COOLING SYSTEM
DRAINING
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE OR LOOSEN THE
COOLANT PRESSURE/VENT CAP, CYLINDER
BLOCK DRAIN PLUGS, OR THE DRAINCOCK WHEN
THE SYSTEM IS HOT AND UNDER PRESSURE
BECAUSE SERIOUS BURNS FROM THE COOLANT
CAN OCCUR.(1)Without removing pressure/vent cap and
with system not under pressure, open the drain-
cock. The draincock is located on the lower right side
of radiator (Fig. 3).
(2) After the coolant recovery pressure container is
empty, then remove coolant pressure/vent cap.
COOLANT RECOVERY PRESS
CONTAINER
DESCRIPTION
The coolant recovery pressure container is
mounted in the engine compartment next to the bat-
tery. The coolant recovery pressure container is made
of plastic (Fig. 4).
OPERATION
The coolant recovery pressure container works
with the pressure/vent cap to use thermal expansion
and contraction of the coolant to keep the coolant
free of trapped air. Provides a convenient and safe
method for checking coolant level and adjusting level
at atmospheric pressure without removing the pres-
sure/vent cap. It also provides some reserve coolant
to cover deaeration, evaporation, or boiling losses.

RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP
DESCRIPTION
The cooling system pressure cap is located on the
radiator. The cap construction includes; stainless
steel swivel top, rubber seals, and retainer, main
spring, and a spring loaded valve (Fig. 19).
OPERATION
The cooling system is equipped with a pressure cap
that releases excessive pressure; maintaining a range
of 97-124 kPa (14-18 psi).
The cooling system will operate at higher than
atmospheric pressure. The higher pressure raises the
coolant boiling point thus, allowing increased radia-
tor cooling capacity.
There is also a vent valve in the center of the cap.
This valve also opens when coolant is cooling and
contracting, allowing the coolant to return to cooling
system from coolant reserve system tank by vacuum
through a connecting hose.If valve is stuck shut,
or the coolant recovery hose is pinched, the
radiator hoses will be collapsed on cool down.
Clean the vent valve (Fig. 19) and inspect cool-
ant recovery hose routing, to ensure proper
sealing when boiling point is reached.
The gasket in the cap seals the filler neck, so that
vacuum can be maintained, allowing coolant to be
drawn back into the radiator from the reserve tank.
If the gasket is dirty or damaged, a vacuum
may not be achieved, resulting is loss of coolant
and eventual overheating due to low coolant
level in radiator and engine.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COOLING SYSTEM
PRESSURE CAP
Dip the pressure cap in water. Clean any deposits
off the vent valve or its seat and apply cap to end of
the Pressure Cap Test Adaptor that is included with
the Cooling System Tester 7700. Working the
plunger, bring the pressure to 104 kPa (15 psi) on the
gauge. If the pressure cap fails to hold pressure of at
least 97 kPa (14 psi), replace the pressure cap.
CAUTION: The Cooling System Tester Tool is very
sensitive to small air leaks that will not cause cool-
ing system problems. A pressure cap that does not
have a history of coolant loss should not be
replaced just because it leaks slowly when tested
with this tool. Add water to the tool. Turn tool
upside down and recheck pressure cap to confirm
that cap is bad.
If the pressure cap tests properly while positioned
on Cooling System Tester (Fig. 20), but will not hold
pressure or vacuum when positioned on the filler
neck. Inspect the filler neck and cap top gasket for
irregularities that may prevent the cap from sealing
properly.

RADIATOR FAN RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The low and high speed fan relays are mounted to
the upper radiator support above the charge air
cooler (Fig. 25).
OPERATION
The cooling system uses two fans. Both fans oper-
ate at two different speeds, low and high. Depending
on engine coolant temperature and A/C system high
side pressure, the fans operate at either low or high.
The ignition switch supplies voltage to the coil side of
the relay. When the ECM grounds the coil side of the
relay, the contacts close and the battery supplies
power to the fans.

HIGH SPEED WARNING - EXPORT
The chime will sound, acting as a warning to the
driver that the vehicle speed has exceeded 120   3
kph (75   2 mph).
OPERATION
The Chime/Buzzer Warning System is diagnosed
using a DRB llltscan tool. Refer to the proper Body
Diagnostic Procedures Manual.
HIGH SPEED WARNING - EXPORT
When the vehicle speed sensor sees 120 3kph
(75   2 mph), it sends a PCI data bus message to the
Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM then turns onthe chime to let the driver know that the vehicle has
reached a speed greater than 120 3kph(75 2
mph). This audible message will continue until the
vehicle is slowed below the predetermined speed.

WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING
COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT
DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.

ignition switch. This chime will operate for all igni-
tion positions except ON and START.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position
O N LY:
²Driver's door is open/ajar (door ajar switch is
closed to ground)
²Key is in the ignition switch (ignition is in the
LOCK position)
The chime will sound until one of the above condi-
tions is removed or until battery protection time out
(15 min.) has expired. Chime rate: 168 to 192 chimes
per minute.
To test the key-in ignition function, insert key into
the ignition and open drivers door. Do not turn igni-
tion ON. Chime should sound until key is removed
from ignition or drivers door is closed.
For diagnosis and testing of the Key-In chime for
other ignition positions, use the same testing proce-
dure as above but with the key in the accessory or
unlock position.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - LOW OIL
PRESSURE CHIME
The low oil pressure chime will warn the driver
that the engine oil pressure is low. The oil pressure
switch will close to ground during a low oil pressure
condition. The oil pressure lamp will illuminate in
the message center. The PCM will monitor the oil
pressure switch and signal a low oil pressure condi-
tion. A continuous four minute warning chime will
sound and the oil pressure lamp will come ON when
the following conditions are met:
²Ignition on and engine not cranking
²Engine running at 420 to 480 rpm for 10 sec-
onds
²Oil pressure switch closed to ground for (1 sec-
ond minimum, 2 seconds maximum)
Chime rate: 168 to 192 chimes per minute.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - SEAT BELT CHIME
The seat belt chime will sound for 4 to 8 seconds,
when the ignition is turned on and the driver's seat
belt is not buckled (seat belt switch is closed to
ground). This is a reminder to the driver to buckle
the seat belt. The seat belt lamp is controlled by the
ORC. The cluster will also bulb check the seat belt
warning lamp for 6 seconds. Buckling the driver's
seat belt before the time out has expired will cause
the chime to stop immediately. Chime rate: 38 to 62
chimes per minute but the lamp will remain on until
6 seconds have expired.
To test the seat belt warning system, the ignition
switch must be in the OFF position for 1 minute
before starting the test. Turn the ignition switch to
the on position with the driver's seat belt not buck-led. The seat belt warning lamp should light and the
chime should sound 4 to 8 seconds.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - SEAT BELT LAMP
The seat belt lamp in the instrument cluster sig-
nals the vehicle passengers to fasten their seat belts.
The seat belt lamp is illuminated directly by the
instrument cluster for 6 seconds after the instrument
cluster receives the message from the ORC. The seat
belt lamp is therefore illuminated for 6 seconds
whenever the ignition switch is moved to run/start
position.
(1) While ignition is off, the seat belt lamp will not
be illuminated.
(2) The ignition power feed status will be updated
every 250 milliseconds or on change.
(3) This lamp will be checked by the instrument
cluster for 6 seconds with every run/start cycle of the
ignition switch.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TIRE PRESSURE
MONITOR
The Tire Pressure Warning chime, as well as the
information being displayed in the EVIC, will act as
a warning to the driver that a tire has either Low or
High pressure, or if there is a need to service the
Tire Pressure Monitor System. With the ignition
switch in the ON position and the ªLow Pressure/
High Pressureº or ªService the TPM Systemº dis-
played on the EVIC display, a single chime will
sound.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN SIGNAL ON
CHIME
The turn signal on chime will warn the driver that
the turn signals have been left on. When the body
control module receives a turn signal input for 1.0
mile, vehicle speed is greater than 24 km/h (15 mph),
the chime will sound continuously until the turn sig-
nal is turned OFF. If vehicle speed drops below 24
km/h (15 mph) prior to the warning being activated,
the accumulated distance traveled will be reset. The
turn signal chime is not activated when the emer-
gency flashers are turned on. Chime rate: 50   12
chimes per minute.
For the turn signal warning system to operate:
²Must have input from either the right or left
turn signal lamps. Creates a voltage change between
0 and battery voltage.
²The vehicle speed sensor sends a message to the
Powertrain Control Module that vehicle has exceeded
24 km/h (15 mph) for 1.0 mile).
²When the above two conditions are met, the
chime will sound. The chime will stop when no fur-
ther voltage change is detected.
