COOLING FAN SWITCH INSTALLATION


  1. INSTALL COOLING FAN SWITCH


    1. Install a new gasket onto the cooling fan switch.

    2. A01BA6I

      Using a 19 mm deep socket wrench, install the cooling fan switch.

      Torque:
      20 N*m  { 200 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf }

    3. Connect the cooling fan switch connector.

  2. ADD ENGINE COOLANT


    1. Firmly tighten the drain plugs.

    2. Fill the radiator reserve tank assembly with coolant to the top of the inlet.

      Coolant capacity
      Condition Capacity
      w/ rear heater 18.2 liters (19.2 US qts, 16.0 lmp. qts)
      w/o rear heater 16.2 liters (17.0 US qts, 14.0 lmp. qts)

      Note

      Do not substitute plain water for engine coolant.

      Tech Tips


      • Use of improper coolants may damage the engine cooling system.

      • Use only Toyota Super Long Life Coolant or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).

    3. Loosen the bleeder plug of the outlet housing.

    4. When air is bled and the coolant drains out, firmly install the bleeder plug.

    5. A01BGFB

      Add coolant up to the B line mark in the radiator reserve tank assembly and install the radiator cap.

    6. Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens.


      1. While the thermostat is open, circulate the coolant for several minutes.

        Tech Tips

        The thermostat open timing can be confirmed by pressing the inlet radiator hose by hand, and checking when the engine coolant starts to flow inside the hose.

    7. A01BBOM

      After the engine cools down, check that the coolant level is between the LOW and FULL level marks.

  3. CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

    Torque:
    5.4 N*m  { 55 kgf*cm, 48 in.*lbf }

  4. INSPECT FOR ENGINE COOLANT LEAK
