Section 13.6 Inoperative Thermo-Modulated Fan
To determine if an inoperative thermo-modulated fan is causing high engine coolant temperature, test the thermo-modulated fan; refer to OEM guidelines.
If the thermo-modulated fan is functioning correctly, check thermostats; refer to "13.7 Faulty Thermostats"
.

Section 13.6.1.1 Test Engine with Replaced Thermo-modulated Fan
Perform the following to determine if thermo-modulated fan replacement resolved high engine coolant temperature:
Start and run the engine.
Run the engine through its operating range with no-load for approximately 5 minutes, allowing the engine coolant to reach normal operating range.
If the engine coolant temperature is 88-96°C (190-210°F), no further troubleshooting is required. Shut down the engine.
If the engine coolant temperature is not 88-96°C (190-210°F), shut down the engine. Check thermostats; refer to "13.7 Faulty Thermostats"
