TROUBLESHOOTING
Cooling Fan No.1/Cooling Fan No.2 Control System Inspection
Cooling fan No.1/cooling fan No.2 system operation
Cooling fan relay No.2
1. Connect the WDS or equivalent to DLC-2.
2. Verify that ECT PID is below main fan operating temperature.
3. Verify that A/C switch and fan switch are off.
4. Turn the engine switch to ON.
5. Verify that the cooling fan No.2 is not operating.
•If the cooling fan No.2 is operating:
(1) Select FAN PID.
(2) Send OFF and verify the cooling fan No.2 is off.
•If the cooling fan No.2 is on, inspect the following.
—Cooling fan relay No.2 stuck in closed position
—Short to GND circuit between cooling fan relay No.2 and PCM terminal 76
—Short to power in circuit at cooling fan relay No.2
—DTC for ECT sensor (P0117, P0118)
•If the cooling fan relay No.2 is off, inspect the following.
—Short to GND circuit between refrigerant pressure switch and PCM terminal 84
—DTC for ECT sensor (P0117, P0118)
6. Start the engine.
7. Verify that the cooling fan No.2 is operating when engine is hot.
•If the cooling fan No.2 does not operate, perform the following.
1. Connect WDS or equivalent to the DLC-2.
2. Select FAN PID.
3. Operate cooling fan No.2 by sending ON command.
4. Inspect if the operation sound is heard from the cooling fan relay No.2.
•If the operation sound is heard, inspect the wiring harness, connectors and cooling fan motor No.2.
•If the operation sound is not heard, inspect cooling fan relay No.2 and open circuit wiring harness
and connectors.
8. Turn the A/C switch and fan switch on.
9. Verify that cooling fan No.2 is operating.
•If fan does not operate, inspect A/C system.
Cooling fan relay No.1
1. Verify that A/C switch and fan switch are off.
2. Start the engine and let it idle.
3. Verify that the cooling fan No.1 is not operating.
•If cooling fan No.1 is operating, inspect for the following.
—Cooling fan relay No.1 is stuck in closed position.
—Short to power in circuit between cooling fan relay No.1 and cooling fan No.1
—Short to GND in circuit between refrigerant pressure switch and PCM terminal 84
—Short to GND circuit between cooling fan relay No.1 and PCM terminal 102
4. Turn the A/C switch and fan switch on.
5. Verify that the cooling fan No.1 is operating and operation sound of A/C compressor magnetic clutch is heard.

6. Turn the A/C switch and fan switch off.
•If the cooling fan No.1 does not operate but operation sound of A/C compressor magnetic clutch is heard,
inspect for the following.
—Open circuit between ignition switch and cooling fan relay No.1
—Open circuit between battery and cooling fan relay No.1
—Open circuit between cooling fan relay No.1 and PCM terminal 102
—Open circuit between cooling fan relay No.1 and cooling fan motor No.1 or fan motor GND
—Cooling fan relay No.1 is stuck open.
—Cooling fan motor No.1
•If both additional fan and A/C compressor do not operate, inspect the following.

Warning
•When the battery cables are connected, touching the vehicle body with starter terminal B will
generate sparks. This can cause personal injury, fire, and damage to the electrical components.
Always disconnect the battery negative cables before performing the following operation.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the plug hole plate. (L8, LF, and L3 engine models)
3. Remove the engine cover. (MZR-CD (RF Turbo) engine model) (See B2–9 TIMING BELT REMOVAL/
INSTALLATION.)
4. Remove the air cleaner assembly. (L8, LF, and L3 engine models).
5. Remove the under cover.
6. Remove the oil filter and oil cooler component with the cooling hose connected. Position the oil filter and oil
cooler component so that it is out of the way. (L3 engine model (4WD))
7. Remove the solenoid valve assembly with the vacuum hose and the connector connected. Position the
solenoid valve assembly so that it is out of the way. (MZR-CD (RF Turbo) engine model)
8. Remove the release cylinder with the oil pipe connected. Position the release cylinder so that it is out of the
way. (MTX)
9. Remove in the order indicated in the table.
10. Install in the reverse order of removal.
