① Remove the radiator fan relay and there should be the continuity between the terminal 1 and the terminal 2 when power and ground are connected to the terminal 5 and the terminal 3.
② There should be no continuity between the terminal 1 and the terminal 2 when power is disconnected.
2. Radiator fan motor test
① Disconnect the 3 terminal connector from the radiator fan motor.
② Test the motor by connecting battery power to the terminal 1 and ground to the terminal 3.
③ If the motor fails to run or does not run smoothly, replace the motor.
3. Thermostat test
① Replace the thermostat if it is open at the room temperature.
② Suspended the thermostat in a container of water and heat the water the temperature with the thermometer. Check the temperature at which the thermostat first opens, and at which it is fully open.
