ENGINE COOLANT
THERMOSTAT
DESCRIPTION - 3.7L ENGINE
CAUTION: Do not operate an engine without a ther-
mostat, except for servicing or testing.
A pellet-type thermostat controls the operating
temperature of the engine by controlling the amount
of coolant flow to the radiator. On all engines the
thermostat is closed below 195ÉF (90ÉC). Above this
temperature, coolant is allowed to flow to the radia-
tor. This provides quick engine warm up and overall
temperature control. On the 3.7L engine the thermo-
stat is designed to block the flow of the coolant
bypass journal by 50% instead of completely blocking
the flow. This design controls coolant temperature
more accurately (Fig. 3).
The same thermostat is used for winter and sum-
mer seasons. An engine should not be operated with-
out a thermostat, except for servicing or testing.
Operating without a thermostat causes other prob-
lems. These are: longer engine warmup time, unreli-
able warmup performance, increased exhaust
emissions and crankcase condensation. This conden-
sation can result in sludge formation.
OPERATION
The wax pellet is located in a sealed container at
the spring end of the thermostat. When heated, the
pellet expands, overcoming closing spring tension
and water pump pressure to force the valve to open.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - THERMOSTAT
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
All models are equipped with On-Board Diagnos-
tics for certain cooling system components.If the pow-
ertrain control module (PCM) detects low engine
coolant temperature, it will record a Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC). For other DTC numbers, (Refer to 25
- EMISSIONS CONTROL - DESCRIPTION).
The DTC can also be accessed through the DRB
scan tool.

RADIATOR FAN - ELECTRIC
DESCRIPTION
The fan (Fig. 12) is electrically controlled by the
powertrain control module (PCM) through the fan
control relay. This relay is located on the left wheel
house in the engine compartment.
OPERATION
The electric radiator cooling fan is controlled by
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) through the
radiator cooling fan relay. The PCM regulates fan
operation based on input from the engine coolant
temperature sensor, battery temperature sensor,air
conditioning select switch and vehicle speed.
The fan is not energized during engine cranking
regardless of the electrical input from the tempera-
ture sensors and ,air conditioning switch. However, if
engine operation conditions warrant fan engagement,
the fan will run once engine starts.
On vehicles NOT equipped with AC:The relay
is energized when the coolant temperature is above
80É C (176É F), or battery temperature sensor above ±
12É C (10É F). It will then de-energize when coolant
temperature drops below 82É C (180É F), or batter
temperature sensor below ± 9É C ( 16É F).
Vehicles Equipped with AC:In addition to using
coolant temperature and battery temperature sensorto control cooling fan operation, the cooling fan will
also be engaged when the ,air conditioning system is
activated. The relay is also energized when, air con-
ditioning is selected and coolant temperature is
above 95É C ( 203É F), or , air conditioning is selected
and battery temperature sensor is above 41É C (106É
F). It will then de-energize when , air conditioning is
selected and coolant temperature is below 92É C
(198É F), or , air conditioning is selected and battery
temperature is below 38É C (100É F).
REMOVAL
If the fan blade is bent, warped, cracked or dam-
aged in any way, it must be replacedonlywith a
replacement fan blade.Do not attempt to repair a
damaged fan blade.
NOTE: For 3.7L Heavy Duty/Max Cool/Trailer Tow
cooling package, the vicous fan cannot be removed
seperate from the shroud. Both fan and shroud
must be removed together.

RADIATOR - FAN - VISCOUS
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: If the viscous fan drive is replaced
because of mechanical damage, the cooling fan
blades should also be inspected. Inspect for fatigue
cracks, loose blades, or loose rivets that could
have resulted from excessive vibration. Replace fan
blade assembly if any of these conditions are
found. Also inspect water pump bearing and shaft
assembly for any related damage due to a viscous
fan drive malfunction.
The thermal viscous fan drive (Fig. 15) is a sili-
cone-fluid-filled coupling used to connect the fan
blades to the water pump shaft. The coupling allows
the fan to be driven in a normal manner. This is
done at low engine speeds while limiting the top
speed of the fan to a predetermined maximum level
at higher engine speeds.
On the 3.7L engine, an electric fan is standard and
the viscous fan is added on for trailer tow packages
only.
OPERATION
A thermostatic bimetallic spring coil is located on
the front face of the viscous fan drive unit. This
spring coil reacts to the temperature of the radiator
discharge air. It engages the viscous fan drive for
higher fan speed if the air temperature from the
radiator rises above a certain point. Until additional
engine cooling is necessary,the fan will remain at
a reduced rpm regardless of engine speed. Nor-
mally less than three hundred (300) rpm.

RADIATOR FAN - ELECTRIC (Continued)

Only when sufficient heat is present, will the vis-
cous fan drive engage. This is when the air flowing
through the radiator core causes a reaction to the
bimetallic coil. It then increases fan speed to provide
the necessary additional engine cooling.
Once the engine has cooled, the radiator discharge
temperature will drop. The bimetallic coil again
reacts and the fan speed is reduced to the previous
disengaged speed.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - VISCOUS FAN
DRIVE
If the fan assembly free-wheels without drag (the
fan blades will revolve more than five turns when
spun by hand), replace the fan drive. This spin test
must be performed when the engine is cool.
For the following test, the cooling system must be
in good condition. It also will ensure against exces-
sively high coolant temperature.
WARNING: BE SURE THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE
FAN BLADE CLEARANCE BEFORE DRILLING.
(1) Drill a 3.18-mm (1/8-in) diameter hole in the
top center of the fan shroud.
(2) Obtain a dial thermometer with an 8 inch stem
(or equivalent). It should have a range of -18É to
105ÉC (0É to 220É F). Insert thermometer through the
hole in the shroud. Be sure that there is adequate
clearance from the fan blades.
(3) Connect a tachometer and an engine ignition
timing light (timing light is to be used as a strobe
light).
(4) Block the air flow through the radiator. Secure
a sheet of plastic in front of the radiator (or air con-
ditioner condenser). Use tape at the top to secure the
plastic and be sure that the air flow is blocked.
(5) Be sure that the air conditioner (if equipped) is
turned off.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT STAND IN A
DIRECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO
NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.
(6) Start the engine and operate at 2400 rpm.
Within ten minutes the air temperature (indicated on
the dial thermometer) should be up to 93É C (200É F).
Fan driveengagementshould have started to occur
at between 91É to 96É C (195É to 205É F). Engage-
ment is distinguishable by a definiteincreasein fan
flow noise (roaring). The timing light also will indi-
cate an increase in the speed of the fan.
(7) When the air temperature reaches 93É C (200É
F), remove the plastic sheet. Fan drivedisengage-
mentshould have started to occur at between 62É to85É C (145É to 185É F). A definitedecreaseof fan
flow noise (roaring) should be noticed. If not, replace
the defective viscous fan drive unit.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable from battery.
NOTE: The thermal viscous fan drive/fan blade
assembly is attached (threaded) to water pump hub
shaft.
(2) Remove fan blade/viscous fan drive assembly
from water pump using special tool 6958 spanner
wrench and 8346 adapters, by turning mounting nut
counterclockwise as viewed from front (Fig. 16).

OPERATION - WATER PUMP
A centrifugal water pump circulates coolant
through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold,
radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core,
this coolant absorbs the heat generated when the
engine is running. The pump is driven by the engine
crankshaft via a drive belt.
