Visctronic Drive Fan (VDF)

The cooling fan electronic clutch is controlled by the PCM. The PCM monitors the engine oil temperature (EOT) and engine coolant temperature (ECT), and sends a duty cycle command to the fan clutch to achieve adequate cooling. When a circuit fault is detected the PCM sets a DTC.
