STEP 22. Check the fan controller.

(1) Disconnect engine-ECU connector or

engine-A/T-ECU connector C-110.

(2) Pull out connector terminal pin 17 to disconnect

connector.

(3) Reconnect the connector with connector terminal

pin still removed.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(5) Check for the cooling fan operation.

• The cooling fan rotates. (with connector

terminal pin 17 disconnected)

• The cooling fan stops. (When connector

terminal pin 17 is connected to the body
earth.)

(6) Turn the ignition switch to the "OFF" position.
(7) Disconnect engine-ECU connector or

engine-A/T-ECU connector C-110, and push in
connector terminal pin 17 to disconnect
connector.

(8) Reconnect the connector with connector terminal

pin still installed.

Q: Does the cooling fan rotate? And when the

connector terminal pin is connected to the body
earth, does the cooling fan stop?

YES :

Go to Step 23.

NO :

Replace the fan motor and fan controller
(Refer to

P.14-25

). Then go to Step 24.

STEP 23. MUT-III self-diag code

Check if an MPI system self-diag code is set. (Refer
to GROUP 13A - Trouble shooting

P.13A-11

).

Q: Diagnosis code set?

YES :

Inspection chart for diagnosis code (Refer

to GROUP 13A - Trouble shooting

P.13A-20

).

NO :

Replace the engine-ECU <M/T> or
engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> (Refer to GROUP
13A, Engine-ECU

P.13A-399

). Then go to

Step 24.

STEP 24. Check the symptoms.

Q: Does the radiator fan motor and the condenser fan

motor operate correctly?

YES :

This symptoms is complete.

NO :

Return to Step 1.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 2: Radiator Fan and Condenser Fan do not Change Speed or Stop

Radiator Fan and Condenser Fan Drive
Circuit

Refer to

P.14-4

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The cause could be a malfunction of the fan

controller power supply or earth circuit.

• If the communication line wiring harness between

the fan controller and the engine-ECU <M/T> or
engine-A/T-ECU <A/T> is short-circuited to earth,
the radiator fan motor and the condenser fan
motor will not rotate.

• The cause could also be a malfunction of input

signal from the A/C switch, the water temperature
sensor unit and the vehicle speed sensor <M/T>
or the output shaft speed sensor <A/T> to the
engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-A/T-ECU <A/T>.
