DESCRIPTION
The ECM calculates an appropriate cooling fan speed based on the engine coolant temperature, air conditioning switch status, refrigerant pressure, engine speed and vehicle speed, and sends a signal to the cooling fan ECU (fan with motor assembly). The cooling fan ECU (fan with motor assembly) steplessly control the speed of the cooling fan based on the duty cycle signal sent from the ECM. By sending signals to the cooling fan ECU (fan with motor assembly) in accordance with the driving conditions and by controlling the cooling fan speed optimally with the ECM, both high cooling performance and quietness are ensured.

PROCEDURE
1. | PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (CONTROL THE ENGINE COOLING FAN DUTY RATIO) |
(a) Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the GTS on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Engine Cooling Fan Duty Ratio.
Powertrain > Engine > Active Test Tester Display |
---|
Control the Engine Cooling Fan Duty Ratio |
(e) Check the operation of the cooling fan while operating it using the GTS.
OK:
GTS Operation | Fan Operation |
---|---|
30 - 100% | Cooling fan operates |
0% | Cooling fan stops |
Result | Proceed to |
---|---|
OK | A |
Cooling fan does not operate | B |
Cooling fan does not stop | C |
A | PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE |
C | GO TO STEP 8 |
|
2. | CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FAN WITH MOTOR ASSEMBLY - ECM) |
(a) Disconnect the A45 fan with motor assembly connector.
(b) Disconnect the A106 ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
A45-3 (SI) or A106-32 (RFC) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
NG | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
|
3. | INSPECT ECM (RFC TERMINAL) |
(a) Disconnect the A45 fan with motor assembly connector.
(b) Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(d) Turn the GTS on.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Engine Cooling Fan Duty Ratio.
Powertrain > Engine > Active Test Tester Display |
---|
Control the Engine Cooling Fan Duty Ratio |
(f) Operate the cooling fan motor (fan with motor assembly) using the Active Test function and measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | GTS Operation | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
A45-3 (SI) - Body ground | Before Active Test (0%) → During Active Test (100%) | Before Active Test (0%): Resistance is stable → During Active Test (100%): Resistance fluctuates* |
HINT:
*: Using the Active Test, duty control of the transistors in the ECM will be performed. Due to the duty control, resistance of the RFC terminal will be unstable during the Active Test. If the resistance is stable before the Active Test and fluctuates while performing the Active Test, it can be determined that the transistor is operating. If the transistor does not operate during the Active Test, the ECM may be malfunctioning.
NG | REPLACE ECM |
