OPERATION
  • The control (duty) signal is inputted to the fan controller (terminal No. 2) from the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 18).
FUNCTION
  • The engine-A/T-ECU inputs a duty signal suitable for the engine coolant temperature, vehicle speed and A/C switch position to the fan controller. In response to the signal, the fan controller controls the rotating speeds of the radiator fan and A/C condenser fan (The fan speed becomes higher as the average voltage of the terminal comes nearer to 5 V).
PROBABLE CAUSE
  • Failed fan controller
  • Open/short circuit in fan controller circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
       
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 2 .
NO:  Repair.
       
  • Disconnect connector, and measure at harness side.
  • Ignition switch: ON
  • Short-circuit terminal No. 18 to earth.
OK: Fan motor stops rotating.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 3 .
NO:  Go to Step 4 .
       
  • Disconnect connector, and measure at harness side.
  • Ignition switch: ON
  • Voltage between terminal No. 18 and earth.
OK: 4.7 - 5.1 V
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Replace fan controller.
NO:  Go to Step 5 .
   
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 6 .
NO:  Repair.
           
NOTE: Before checking harness, check intermediate connector A-14, and repair if necessary.
  • Check output line for open circuit.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Replace fan controller.
NO:  Repair.
