Scan Tool Reference Control Module References Circuit/System Verification 1. Verify that the following DTCs are not set: P0480 or P0481. If either of the DTCs is set, repair the DTC first. 2. Ignition ON, command high and low speed fans ON and OFF with a scan tool. Observe to verify that the fans turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states. Circuit/System Testing 1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the series/parallel fan relay. 2. Ignition ON, activate the cooling fan relay 1 with a scan tool. The fan should be OFF. If the fan is activated, test the left fan ground circuit for a short to ground. 3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the remaining fan relays. 4. Connect a 30A fused jumper between the normally-open switch contact terminals at the fan control relay connector in order to complete the left fan ground circuit. Leave this jumper in 5. One at a time, connect a 30A fused jumper between the positive terminal at the battery and the fan voltage supply circuit terminal at each relay connection and verify the appropriate If the appropriate fan does not activate, test the fan voltage supply circuit for a short to 6. Ignition ON, connect a 30A fused jumper between the relay switch voltage supply circuit terminal and the fan voltage supply circuit terminal at the low speed and then the high speed If the appropriate fan does not activate, test the relay switch voltage supply circuit for 7. If the circuits and fans test normal, replace the relay. Repair Procedures Engine Coolant Fan Motor Replacement (Non-HP2) IMPORTANT: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
