INTRODUCTION TO MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)
OVERVIEW OF MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM
The Motorist Assurance Program is the consumer outreach
effort of the Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association, Inc.
(AMRA). Participation in the Motorist Assurance Program is drawn from
retailers, suppliers, independent repair facilities, vehicle
manufacturers and industry associations.
Our organization's mission is to strengthen the relationship
between the consumer and the auto repair industry. We produce
materials that give motorists the information and encouragement to
take greater responsibility for their vehicles-through proper,

1991 ENGINE COOLING
Mitsubishi Engine Cooling Fans
Mitsubishi: Eclipse, Galant, Mirage,
Montero, Pickup, Precis, 3000GT
ELECTRIC COOLING FAN - COMPONENT TESTING
MOTOR
Disconnect electric cooling fan motor at junction. Using 2
jumper wires, ground one lead and apply battery voltage to other. Fan
should rotate. If fan does not rotate, replace motor.
RADIATOR FAN SWITCH
Using an ohmmeter, check switch continuity in hot water.
Switch should be open at less than 180F (82C) and continuity should
exist at more than 185F (85C). Replace radiator fan switch if it
does not test as specified.
ELECTRIC COOLING FAN RELAY
1) Remove relay from relay box in front of right suspension
tower. Using jumper wires, connect battery to indicated terminals.
2) On 3000GT, continuity should exist between terminals No. 1
and 3. With battery disconnected, continuity should exist between
terminals No. 2 and 4 and should not exist between terminals No. 1 and
3.
3) On all other models, continuity should exist between
terminals No. 3 and 4. With battery disconnected, continuity should
exist between terminals No. 1 and 2 and should not exist between
terminals No. 3 and 4. Replace relay if it does not test as specified.

ELECTRIC COOLING FAN - SYSTEM TESTING
MIRAGE 1.5L
1) With A/C on LOW position, ignition on and engine coolant
temperature greater than 185F (85C), thermosensor completes path to
ground, closing radiator fan motor relay contacts and providing
current to radiator fan motor. See Fig. 1.
2) With A/C on HIGH position and ignition on, power supply
from automatic compressor control unit causes condenser fan motor
relay and condenser fan motor control relay to turn on, causing
condenser fan and radiator cooling fan to operate.

MIRAGE 1.6L
1) With A/C on LOW position, ignition on and engine coolant
temperature greater than 185F (85C), thermosensor completes path to
ground, closing radiator fan motor relay contacts and providing
current to radiator fan motor. See Fig. 2.
2) With A/C on HIGH position and ignition on, power supply
from auto compressor control unit causes condenser fan motor relay to
turn on, causing condenser fan and radiator cooling fan to operate at
a low speed by usage of a resistor.
3) If pressure switch is activated by excessive pressure or
if thermosensor is on when engine coolant temperature exceeds 185
F
(85C), condenser fan motor control relay is activated, causing
condenser fan and radiator cooling fan to operate at a high speed.
ECLIPSE & 3000GT
With ignition on and engine coolant temperature greater than
185F (85C), thermosensor completes path to ground, closing radiator
fan motor relay contacts and providing current to radiator fan. See
Figs. 7 -11.
