parking brake engaged. When thetransmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be at normal operating temperature and theengine idling.
Whilst the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selectorlevel from "P" to each of its other positions — "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" — and then return to "N" or "P". With theengine still idling:

Checking Engine Cooling Fan The engine cooling fan should auto-matically come on if the engine cool- ant temperature is high.
Checking Condenser Cooling Fan The condenser cooling fan (in front of the condenser) should come on auto- matically whenever the air conditioner is in operation.
