Fan & Motor

Start radiator cooling fan motor and shroud optimization procedures for 2.3L, 3.0L and 3.5L engines by setting the vehicle on a hoist in NEUTRAL position. The service procedure for 2.3L engines requires generator air inlet duct removal whereas 3.5L engines need air cleaner and bracket bolt removal with a tight 10 Nm (89 lb-in) clamp after installation. All vehicles require the detaching of three block heater wiring retainers from the cooling fan motor and shroud before setting them aside. Caretakers should begin by taking out the splash shield before unfastening the lower radiator hose from the cooling fan motor and shroud. The retainer on the lower radiator hose needs detaching on 3.0L and 3.5L engine models. The technician should start by disconnecting transmission cooler tubes from the fan motor assembly and shroud before removing the wiring harness securing clamps and placing them aside. Remove the cooling fan electric connector first before releasing the two tabs to take out the cooling fan motor and shroud unit. The completion of the service requires performing the installation steps in reverse order.

Starting radiator cooling fan motor and shroud repair tasks on all vehicles requires positioning them on a hoist with NEUTRAL selected. Disconnect the battery ground cable. The generator air inlet duct must be removed away from 2.3L engines. The 3 block heater wire retainers must be detached from the cooling fan motor and shroud on all vehicles and then placed aside. After splashing shield removal you should detach the lower radiator hose bracket from the cooling fan motor and shroud. You must detach the retainer which holds the lower radiator hose from both the motor and the cooling fan shroud on 3.0L engine models. The cooling fan motor installation requires automatic transmission vehicles to separate their transmission cooler tubes from the shroud. Start by removing the cooling fan motor electrical connector followed by unharnessing the four retainers from the wiring and placing the harness aside then releasing the tabs before removing both the cooling fan motor and shroud unit. Reverse the steps used for removal to install the component.
