  Q: How to Safely Replace the Fan Shroud and Radiator Fan with PWM on Cadillac XLR?

  A: The process of replacing the Radiator fan and shroud with pwm starts with taking safety measures that involve avoiding contact with underhood electric fans because they might activate even when the engine is turned off. Repair or replace any broken cooling system components since this can cause personal injuries and damage your vehicle. The installation process must begin with both ignition and start switch in off or lock mode and electric loads turned off. Additionally, disconnect the negative battery cable whenever tools approach live electrical terminations. The appropriate work begins by removing the Radiator support before disconnecting engine wiring harness from Radiator fan shroud and surge tank outlet hose from retaining clips on shroud. First raise the vehicle and remove the stabilizer shaft before disconnecting both the Radiator fan electrical connector and its stabilizer shaft. The procedure starts with disconnecting the lower transmission oil cooler line from the Radiator then moving on to remove the Radiator fan shroud retaining bolts and finally remove the Radiator fan and shroud. Put the Radiator fan and shroud onto the Radiator properly before installing the Radiator fan followed by the shroud then tightening retaining bolts to 5 n.m (44 lb in). Reestablish the connection for the lower transmission oil cooler line before attaching the Radiator fan electrical connector and stabilizer shaft. After the surge tank outlet hose's installation onto retaining clips of the Radiator fan shroud, connect engine wiring harnesses to the shroud before reinstalling the Radiator support.
