Signal Too Low. Permanent Fault

Signal too low. Permanent fault

Checking the fuse




- Ignition off.
Check the fuse for the circuit in the integrated relay / fusebox in the engine compartment.
Replace if necessary.

Other information
- To access or replace the relay or fuse, see the inside of the cover on the engine compartment relay/fusebox.

Was a fault detected?

Yes - Verification

No - Checking the engine cooling fan (FC) relay

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the engine cooling fan (FC) relay








- Ignition off
- Disconnect engine cooling fan (FC) relay 2/10.
Connect an ohmmeter between engine cooling fan (FC) relay terminals #1 and #2 (relay side).

Other information
- To access or replace the relay or fuse, see the inside of the cover on the engine compartment relay/fusebox.









The ohmmeter should read approximately 105 ohms at +20°C.

OK - Checking the signal cable

Not OK - Defective engine cooling fan (FC) relay

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the signal cable




- Ignition on.
Check the cable between engine cooling fan (FC) relay base terminal #2 and engine control module (ECM) connector terminal #38. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Remedy as necessary.
