Electric Cooling Fan Control (Except 1.9L & 3.0L)
All FWD and some RWD vehicles use an electric cooling fan. The electric cooling fan is used for radiator and A/C condenser cooling. Cooling fan operates when A/C is on and when engine coolant temperature exceeds a specific value. One or more cooling fan relays may be used. For location of cooling fan relay, see COOLING FAN RELAY LOCATION table.

To help save diagnostic time, ALWAYS check for blown fuses or fusible links before proceeding with any testing. If fuses are blown, locate and repair short circuit before replacing fuses. Ensure all related relay and wire harness connections are clean and tight. Repair as necessary. For component location, and terminal and wire color identification, see appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
