2. Remove the radiator fan relay from the under-hood fuse/relay box, and test it.
Is the relay OK?
YES-Go to step 3.
NO-Replace the radiator fan relay.





3. Measure the voltage between the No. 2 terminal of the radiator fan relay 4P socket and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES-Go to step 4.
NO-Replace the under-hood fuse/relay box.





4. Connect the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals of the radiator fan relay 4P socket with a jumper wire.
Does the radiator fan run?
YES-Go to step 5.
NO-Go to step 6.





5. Disconnect the jumper, and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Check for voltage between the No. 3 terminal of the radiator fan relay 4P socket and body ground.
