Q: How to replace the engine coolant fan motor on Chevrolet Equinox?
A: The first step for replacing the engine coolant Fan Motor includes disconnecting the negative Battery Cable for safety reasons to stop sparking then keeping hands and tools clear of the electric fan. Start by unmounting the Fan Shroud assembly from the vehicle and position the Fan Blade to prevent spinning. You should use ge-47827 socket (GE-47827) to reverse the Fan Motor drive plate motion against the Fan Blade arrow and then discard the blade. Set the Fan Motor along with its shroud on a wooden block before executing center punching procedures with a 6.35 mm (0.25 in) drill bit to remove the rivets then extract the Fan Motor from the shroud while cleaning away all debris. Install the new engine cooling Fan Motor onto the Fan Shroud by inserting bolts from its front side and securely tighten the cooling Fan Motor nuts to 6 n.m (53 lb in). Position the new Fan Blade hub on the Fan Motor drive plate when it has reached proper surface temperature of 49°c (120°F) maintained for at least 60 seconds. The ge-47827 socket (GE-47827) should be utilized to spin the Fan Motor drive plate toward the arrow on the Fan Blade until a connection is achieved before rotating the cooling Fan Blade to confirm proper positioning and reinstalling the Fan Shroud assembly on the vehicle.
Q: How to replace the Electric Cooling Fan Motor on Chevrolet Malibu?
A: The process of electric cooling Fan Motor replacement starts with obtaining j 38185 hose clamp pliers (J 38185) which serve as necessary equipment. Start by taking out the battery and battery tray followed by recovery of a/c system and draining of the cooling system. The technician must use the j 38185 to move upper Radiator Hose and clamps into position before extracting both hoses along with the upper transaxle cooler line. Apply another j 38185 hose clamp pliers device to move surge tank hoses and clamps before removing the coolant surge tank hose. Proceed by taking out both the condenser inlet fitting from the discharge hose and the cooling fan electrical connector. Ensure the vehicle is raised and eliminate the lower closeout panel from the chassis. The j 38185 tool should be used to reposition the lower Radiator Hose before removing the hose and transaxle cooler line and the condenser outlet line from the evaporator. Begin by removing the lower Radiator mounting panel and afterward remove the Radiator combined with fan and condenser assembly from the vehicle. Start by unattaching the Fan Shroud from the Radiator and proceed to remove the fan nut and fan from the Fan Motor until you reach the Fan Motor which requires its bolts removal to complete the removal process. Start installation by installing the Fan Motor while securing it with bolts at 6 nm (53 inch lbs.) before attaching the fan to the motor while tightening its nut to 6 nm (53 inch lbs.). Realign the Fan Shroud on the Radiator before you reassemble the Radiator components with fan and condenser next to the vehicle. The installation requires fastening the lower Radiator mounting panel with bolts at 10 nm (89 inch lbs.) while connecting the condenser outlet to the evaporator line using a bolt and tightening it to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). To finish the installation securely place the lower Radiator Hose by using the j 38185 tool before installing the lower Radiator Hose while attaching the lower closeout panel. Lower the vehicle and link the electrical connection for the cooling fan and then add the lower transaxle oil cooler line before securing the fitting to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.). Position the discharge hose to the condenser inlet then tighten it to 25 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). Next install the coolant surge tank hose and the upper transaxle oil cooler line fitting by tightening to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.). You should implement the j 38185 tool to relocate the upper Radiator Hose and clamps before installing the hose and refilling the cooling system and recharging the a/c system and reattaching the battery tray with the battery.
Q: How to replace the Electric Cooling Fan Motor on Chevrolet Camaro?
A: The first step during electric cooling Fan Motor replacement requires unmounting the cooling fan. The second step involves uninstalling the cooling Fan Motor. You should always follow the fastener notice in service precautions for installation. Following installation of the cooling Fan Motor users should torque its bolts to 6 nm using an inch lbs. Torque setting. Finally, reinstall the cooling fan.
