Pinpoint Tests AH: Cooling Fan: Introduction
WARNING:
DO NOT OPERATE THE ENGINE WITH THE HOOD OPEN UNTIL THE FAN BLADE HAS BEEN EXAMINED FOR POSSIBLE CRACKS AND SEPARATION. A DAMAGED FAN CAN SEPARATE DURING OPERATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
NOTE:
Regeneration may occur during normal operation. During regeneration, diagnostic procedures may display biased values. If a regeneration occurs during diagnostic procedures, allow the process to complete before continuing diagnostics.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- cooling fan (8600)
- cooling fan clutch (8A616)
- fan speed sensor (FSS) (8A616)
- harness circuits
- PCM (12A650)
