COOLING FAN SYSTEM Cooling Fan Circuit

DTC Code DTC Name
Cooling Fan Circuit

DESCRIPTION

To control the cooling fans, the ECM turns the cooling fan relays on or off based on the engine coolant temperature, air conditioning switch, refrigerant pressure, engine speed and vehicle speed signals.

The ECM turns the fan relays on or off to switch the cooling fan motor circuit between the series circuit and parallel circuit, controlling the cooling fan motor speed in 2 steps.
