•The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
controls the cooling fan motor drive control
unit to activate the cooling fan motor (L.H.) and
the cooling fan motor (R.H.) <4G1 (Vehicles with
A/C)> or A/C condenser fan motor <4G6>.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
•The cause could be a malfunction of the cooling
fan motor drive control unit power supply or earth
circuit.
•If the communication line wiring harness between
the cooling fan motor drive control unit and the
engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU is
short-circuited to earth, the cooling fan motor
(L.H.) and the cooling fan motor (R.H.) <4G1
(Vehicles with A/C)> or the A/C condenser fan
motor <4G6> will not rotate.
•The cause could also be a malfunction of the
cooling fan motor (L.H.).
•The cause could also be a malfunction of imput
signal from the A/C switch, the water temperature
sensor unit and the vehicle speed sensor
or the output shaft speed sensor to the
engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU .
•The cause could also be a malfunction of the
cooling fan motor drive control unit or the
engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU .
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

•Malfunction of fan control relay
•Malfunction of cooling fan motor (L.H.) without A/C>
•Malfunction of cooling fan motor drive control unit
•Malfunction of engine-ECU or

CIRCUIT OPERATION
Refer to P.14-6.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
•If the communication line wiring harness between
the cooling fan motor drive control unit and the
engine-ECU or the engine-A/T-ECU
is open, the cooling fan motor (L.H.) and
the cooling fan motor (R.H.) <4G1 (Vehicles with
A/C)>, or the A/C condenser fan motor <4G6>
rotate to prevent the engine from overheating.
•If the system voltage is continuously supplied to
the cooling fan motor drive control unit by a fan
motor relay malfunction and a short circuit on the
cooling fan motor drive control unit power supply
wiring harness, the cooling fan motor (L.H.) and
the cooling fan motor (R.H.) <4G1 (Vehicles with
A/C)>, or the A/C condenser fan motor <4G6>
rotate.
•The cause could also be a malfunction of the
cooling fan motor (L.H.).
•The cause could also be a malfunction of input
signal from the A/C switch, the water temperature
sensor unit and the vehicle speed sensor
or the output shaft speed sensor to the
engine-ECU .
•The cause could also be a malfunction of the
cooling fan motor drive control unit or the
engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU .
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the fan control relay.
Refer to P.14-23.
Q: Is the fan control relay in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2 .
NO : Replace the fan control relay. Then go to

WARNING
Stay clear of the fan when the fan starts run-
ning.
6. Turn the A/C switch to the "ON" position.
7. Measure the voltage between the cooling fan
motor drive control unit side connector terminal 1
and 2 while the fan is running. The voltage should
repeat the values below.
Standard value:
1. 1 V or less
2. 8.2 ± 0.7 V
3. System voltage ± 2.6 V
8. If the voltage does not repeatedly change as indicated, replace the cooling fan motor drive
