SYMPTOM/CONDITION: Vehicle overheats or radiator fan continues to run.
DIAGNOSIS:
Actuate the radiator fan relay using the DRB lilt If the radiator fan does not come on or fan runscontinuously, perform the Repair Procedure.
PARTS REQUIRED:
1 05293157AA Jumper Wire With Diode Radiator Fan
1 04886288AA Relay Radiator Fan
2 06015756 Tie Strap
REPAIR PROCEDURE:
This bulletin involves installing a radiator fan jumper wire assembly into the headlamp and dashwiring harness, and replacing the solid state relay.
1.Raise the hood and disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Raise the vehicle on a suitable hoist.
3. Locate the left (driver's side) black fan motor connector. Retract the red latch on the two-way female connector, depress the thumb latch, and disconnect the connector from the fan (Figure 1). If the wiring to the fan motor is clipped into the fan support, gently pry it out of the hole so the fan is not damaged.
4.Pry out the two Christmas tree type retainers located on the lower radiator enclosurereinforcement.
5. Install the jumper wire assembly (p/n 052931 57AA) between the radiator fan and theheadlamp and dash harness:
A. Attach the black two-way male connector with the clip into the outboard hole, so theconnector faces outboard toward the left side of the vehicle. Attach the secondclip into the inboard hole of the lower reinforcement that the original wiring cameout of (Figure 2).
B. Connect the original two-way black connector to the new mating connector installedin the previous step and slide the red latch into the locked position.
6. Connect the two-way female black connector on the new jumper assembly to the fan connector and slide the red latch into the locked position. If the original wiring to the fan was clipped into the fan support, snap the new clip on the jumper into the same hole.
7. Bundle the excess original fan wiring and tie strap to the main bundle of vehicle wiring in the front left corner in two places.
NOTE: ENSURE THAT THE WIRING BUNDLE IS SECURE AND DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH ANY OTHER COMPONENTS.
8. The solid state fan relay is located on the left front rail. Retract the red latch on the blackfour-way connector and disconnect from the solid state fan relay.
9. Remove the two screws that secure the relay to the side of the left front rail and remove the relay.
10. Install the new solid state fan relay (p/n 04886288AA) and locate the index pin on therelay into the locator hole in the rail. Secure with the two screws and torque to 5 N m(45 in.lbs.).
11. Connect the four way connector and slide the red latch into the locked position.
12. Lower the vehicle and connect the negative battery cable.
POLICY: Reimbursable within the provisions of the warranty.
I hope this helps.
