When removing, transporting or installing the
fan and shroud assembly, do not grasp the
assembly by the fan rings (1) as this may
bend the fan motor shaft and cause fan
vibrations
Figure 6B3 – 56
When handling the fan assembly, always hold
the assembly at the fan shroud (1).
Figure 6B3 – 57
Install
Installation of the cooling fan and shroud assembly is the reverse of removal procedures, noting the following points:
1 Ensure that fan and shroud assembly to radiator attaching clips are fully engaged.
2 Ensure that the top automatic transmission cooling pipe (if fitted) is installed to the integral shroud clip.
3 Check cooling fan operation. Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management Diagnostics. Also check for correct rotational direction of the cooling fan.

Disassemble
1 Remove cooling fan and shroud assembly as previously described.
NOTE
Neither fan is to be separated from its fan motor.
The assembly is carefully balanced during
manufacture and duplicating this balance on
reassembly, is not possible.
2 Remove the motor assembly wiring harness (1) from the integral clips that form a part of the shroud (2).
3 Remove screws (3) attaching the motor assembly (to the shroud, then remove each motor, fan and wiring
assembly (4) from the shroud.

2 Ensure that all wiring is routed correctly and secured by the shroud clips.
3 Install cooling fan and shroud assembly to the radiator, as previously described.
3.14 Flexible Transmission Cooler Hose
Replace
NOTE
The flexible hoses are not serviced separately.
Therefore, should a hose require replacement,
then the hose and radiator to hose cooler pipe
assembly must be fitted.

slip it over the cooler line to be disconnected
from the radiator, ahead of the verifier disc.
• Slide the release tool along the cooler line and
engage it with the quick-connect fitting (2).
• W hile pushing inwards, rotate the release tool
clockwise, about one sixth of a turn to release
the spring clip holding the cooler line.
• W ith the release tool held in this position, pull
back on the cooler line to release it.
• Plug the openings to prevent fluid loss and/or
contamination.
• Repeat the procedure to remove the remaining
cooler line.

NOTE
Should the spring clip or the O-ring seal in the
quick connect fitting be damaged during the line
removal process, then the complete fitting must
be replaced.
Reinstall
1 Remove the plugs installed in the transmission cooler line and hose openings and wipe all exposed parts
with a clean shop rag.
• Smear clean automatic transmission fluid on
each cooler line end, then push into the radiator
quick connect fittings. As a security check gently
pull on the connector to ensure correct
engagement.
• As a security check, push and clip each
verification disc into place over the quick-
connect fittings. If difficulty is experienced,
repeat the installation process until the
verification disc can be clipped into place over
the radiator quick-connect fitting.
If the verifier disc does not clip into place,
the quick-connect fitting is not engaged,
rectify this before proceeding.
• Snap the outlet cooler line (4) in the clip (5) of
the radiator fan shroud
• At the transmission end, again clean the line
ends and proceed as detailed in step 2. As a
further security check ensure that each
verification disc can be pushed into place over
the quick connect fitting. If difficulty is
experienced, then the line has not been
completely installed. Remove and repeat the
installation process again until the verification
disc can be clipped into place over the
transmission quick connect fitting
• Ensure that all line clamps are fitted correctly
and that the lines and hoses are correctly routed
and free of obstructions
• Tighten the screw attaching the cooler lines
bracket to the correct torque specifications
• If required, top up the transmission fluid level
(cold)
• Start the engine and check for any fluid leak at
the fittings. If a leak is found, stop the engine
and rectify the leak

Reinstall
Installation of the radiator is the reverse of removal procedures, noting the following points:
1 Before installing radiator, inspect core to ensure that there is no foreign matter in core fins. Clean out between core fins with compressed air, blowing from rear to front.
2 If the vehicle is fitted with an automatic transmission, remove plugs from the removed cooling pipe ends and the two quick connect fittings.
3 After wiping cooler line ends and smearing clean automatic transmission fluid over each flared line end, push into the quick connect fitting to engage. As a security check, tug on each line to ensure correct engagement.
4 Check the transmission fluid level. Refer to the following references as required:
• 7C4 Automatic Transmission
• 4L60E On-vehicle Servicing
5 Install the following hoses:
a. Lower radiator hose, securing with the hose clamp.
b. Upper radiator hose, securing with the hose clamp.
6 Install the radiator cooling fan and shroud assembly. Refer to 3.13Cooling Fan and Shroud Assembly in this Section. Ensure that electrical connectors and the transmission cooler lines are seated correctly in the integral
retainer clips before install upper radiator shroud.
7 Refill cooling system. Refer to 3.3 Draining and Filling Cooling System in this Section.
8 Check for coolant leaks. Refer to 3.7 Pressure Testing in this Section.
9 Reconnect battery ground lead. Refer to 8A Electrical Body & Chassis.
10 Check cooling fan operation. Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management Diagnostics. Also check for correct rotational direction of cooling fan.

Radiator Repair Procedure
Repairable Leaks
Figure 6B1 – 64
Legend:
1 Left-hand Side Tank Seal
2 Core Tubes
3 Right-hand Side Tank Seal 4 Oil Cooler Pipe Fittings
5 Joint Between Tube and Header
There are two types of leaks that can be repaired on the aluminium-plastic radiator; core leaks and automatic
transmission oil cooler seal leaks. Leaks in the plastic tanks or the seals between the side tanks and the headers cannot
be repaired; therefore the radiator must be replaced.
Core leaks may occur in a tube or in the joints between the tubes and the headers. Seal leaks may occur in the joints
between the plastic tanks and the headers or in the joints between the oil cooler fittings and the tank (vehicles with
automatic transmission).
W hile some leaks can be repaired while the radiator is installed in the vehicle, it is strongly recommended that the
radiator is first removed from the vehicle.
NOTE
Minor damage to tubes, or tube to header joint
(holes up to 1 mm diameter max.) can be
repaired. Core replacement is necessary if
damage is any greater.
