After stop the vehicle and
the engine, the radiator fan
will continue running for
certain period since the engine is still
under hot condition and will stop
running when the engine is cooled to
certain temperature. Even though, the
fan may still start suddenly in case of
the sudden temperature increasing of
the engine compartment due to the
influence of the ambient
environmental temperature (sunshine
exposure or high temperature region).
Therefore, cautions should be taken
when operate in the engine
compartment so as to avoid the
accident.
Instruction:
If the fan isn’t running when the
coolant temperature reached the fan
start temperature, then check the fan
fuse for burn-out. Replace the fuse if
necessary.
The fan speed is independent of the
engine speed and the gearshift to low
gear will not promote the cooling
effects of the fan. Therefore, it’s
unnecessary to shift to low gear
provide that the engine runs smoothly
and the vehicle speed has no obvious
reduction on upward slopes.
