1. GENERAL I NFORMATION
The engine cooling system for VX, VU and W H Series II Models fitted with a GEN III V8 engine carries over from
VX Series I Models, noting the following:
• A new condenser, radiator and fan module (CRFM) was introduced into WH Series II Models as a running
change during October 2002.
The inf ormation provided in this Section only applies to WH Series II Models fitted with the revised cooling system .
For information regarding either the earlier type cooling system or the unchanged portion of the revised cooling
system, refer to Section 6B3-1 ENGINE COOLING – GEN III V8 ENGINE in the VX Series I Service Information, in
conjunction with Section 6B3-1 ENGINE COOLING – GEN III V8 ENGINE in the VT Series II Service Information.
The c ooling system f or WH Series II vehicles with the GEN III V8 engine, consis ts of two, two-speed electric cooling
fans mounted behind the radiator. Fan operation is dependent on engine coolant temperature, vehicle speed, A/C
request (where fitted) and A/C system pressure.
2. GENERAL DESCRI PTI O N
2.1 RADIATOR
The radiator (1) is of the crossflow design and consists of an aluminium core with plastic side tanks attached to
each end of the c ore. For vehicles with automatic trans mission, a trans mission oil c ooler is located in the left- hand
side tank.
Pegs are attached to the lower frame and the upper area of each side tank. These pegs are used to support the
radiator in four rubber mounts. The assembly is held in position by two spring clips at the upper mounting locations.
The radiator core side tanks and/or trans mission oil cooler CANNOT be replac ed separately. If there is a fault with
any of these components, the radiator assembly must be replaced. Small core repairs can be made using an
Aluminised Silicon based liquid repair agent.
2.2 COOLING FANS
The cooling system for the GEN III V8 engine, includes two, twin speed, engine cooling f an motors, both of which,
drive fans with five, asym m etrical blades, to r educe air noise. T he right fan is 342 m m in diam eter and has a motor
rated at 220 Watts, while the left fan is 293 mm in diameter with a motor power rating of 180 Watts.
With 12 volts applied and the fans mounted onto the radiator with a condenser fitted, the operating speeds are:
Stage 1 Stage 2
Large Fan 2,350 ± 150
rpm 2,750 ± 150
rpm
Small Fan 2,050 ± 150
rpm 2,300 ± 150

OPERATION
To achieve the dual speed requirement, the electrical circuitry for the GEN III V8 cooling fans have two negative and
one positive terminal. To reduce the heat burden on the electrical connectors, the current draw is directed through
separate negative term inals at the joint connector (‘8’ in Figure 6B3-1), for each f an motor, when operating on low
speed. When operating at high speed, only one negative terminal is required.
The positive terminals are permanently connected
to battery voltage, via fusible links F101 (left fan)
and F107 (right fan).
The engine cooling fan Low Speed Relay (1) is
energised by the BCM. W hen the PCM determ ines
that the low speed fan relay should be enabled, the
PCM will send a message on the Class 2 serial
data circuit to the PIM. The PIM will then convert
the PCM Class 2 message to a UART message
and supply this UART message to the BCM, via a
serial data Normal Mode Message to the BCM on
circuit 800 (Red/Black wire). This message will
request the BCM to supply the needed ground
signal for the Low Speed Relay to operate.
After the BCM provides the ground signal for the
Low Speed Relay, the BCM will send a message
back to the PIM confirming that the ground signal
was commanded.
A failure in this BCM response communication, will
cause a PIM DTC B2002 to set.
Figure 6B3-2
The PCM determines when to enable stage 1, based on inputs from the A/C request signal, Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) sensor and the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).
There are also suppression capacitors incorporated into the fan motor, located on the brush holders. These
suppression capacitors help eliminate fan motor noise through the radio speakers. As these capacitors are not
serviced separately, should a problem occur with either capacitor, then the motor assembly must be replaced.
STAGE ONE FAN OPERATION
The cooling fan low speed relay will be turned ON when:
• The A/C request indicated (YES) and either:
• the vehicle speed is less than 30 km/h.
or
• A/C pressure is greater than 1500 kPa
or
• The coolant temperature is greater than 98°C.
• or
• If the coolant tem per ature is gr eater than 113°C, when the ignition is switched of f, the r elay is energised for
approximately four minutes, this is known as Low Fan Run On.
• or
• If an engine coolant temper ature s ens or f ault is detec ted and a DT C s uc h as DTC P0117, P0118, P1114 or
P1115 is set.
The cooling fan low speed relay will be turned OFF when any of the following conditions have been met:
• An A/C request is not indicated (NO) and the coolant temperature is less than 95°C.
or
• An A/C request is indicated ( YES) and the vehicle speed is greater than 50 k m/h and A/C pressure is less than
1,170 kPa and the coolant temperature is less than 98°C.
NOTE: THE LOW SPEED COOLING FAN HAS A MINIMUM RUN-ON TIME OF 30 SECONDS.
STAGE TWO FAN OPERATION
The engine cooling fan relay 2 (R5) is controlled by the PCM. The PCM will only activate stage 2 fan operation, if the
engine cooling fan relay 1 has been ON for two seconds and the following conditions are satisfied.
• There is a BCM message response fault which will cause a PIM DTC B2002.
• An engine coolant temperature sensor fault is detected and a DTC such as DTC P0117, P0118, P1114 or
P1115 is set.
• Coolant temperature greater than 108°C.
• The A/C refrigerant pressure is greater than 2400 kPa.
If the low speed fan was OFF when the criteria was met to turn the high speed fan ON, the high speed fan will come
ON 5 sec onds after the low speed f an is turned ON. If both the engine cooling fan relays are ON, the PCM will turn
OFF the high speed relay when:
• The engine coolant temperature is less than 102°C.
• A/C request not indicated (NO).
• A/C request indicated (YES) and A/C pressure is less than 1900 kPa.
NOTE: All cooling fans will be turned off if the vehicle speed is greater than 104 km/h.
The PCM determines operation of the two, two-speed engine cooling fans based on A/C request, A/C system
pressure (where fitted), engine coolant temperature and vehicle speed signal inputs. For further details of the
engine cooling fan operation and diagnosis of the system, refer to Section 6C3 PO WERTRAIN M ANAGEM ENT –
GEN III V8 ENGINE in the VT Series II Service Information.
3. SERVICE OPERATIONS
3.1 SERVICE NOTES
SAFETY
Before removing the surge tank cap, allow the engine to cool, then place a shop rag over the surge tank cap and
slowly turn the c ap anti-clock wise, to loosen. DO NOT SPIN THE CAP OFF! If ther e is any residual press ure in the
cooling system, it c an then be released into the dam under the cap and out through the drain hose onto the ground.
When all pressure has been dispersed in this way, the cap can then be fully removed.
CAUTION: To avoid seriou s personal injury, never remo ve the screw -on surg e tank cap w hen the engine is
hot, even if the cooling system should require filling. Sudden release of cooling system pressure is very
dangerous.
The vehic le’s r adiator is f itted with twin radiator electr ic cooling fans . When working around the engine compartment
with the engine running or with the ignition on, keep clear of the fan as it may start operating without warning.
PERIODIC SERVICING
The cooling system requires little care except for maintaining the coolant to the correct level in the coolant surge
tank and periodic servicing at the time or distance intervals as outlined in the Owner's Handbook.
Periodic servicing includes:
1. Checking coolant level, refer to 2.3 DRAINING AND FILLING COOLING SYSTEM in Section 6B3 – ENGINE
COOLING – GEN III V8 ENGINE in the VT Series II Service Information.
2. Checking coolant concentration, refer to TESTING COOLANT CONCENTRATION, 2.2 COOLANT

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
To reduc e the impac t on the environment and the maintenanc e co st, whenever the c oolant is dr ained f r om the GEN
III V8 engine, the service rec ords are to be check ed to determine when the coolant was last changed. If more than
six months life is left before the next coolant change, then the following procedure is to be adhered to:
1. W hen dr aining the coolant from the engine, use a c lean container of at least 15 litres capacity and ensur e that
the coolant is not contaminated in the draining process.
2. After repairs have been completed, refill the engine cooling system with the drained coolant.
3. Top up as required, using a 50% mixture of DEX-COOL® to GM Specification 6277M to 50% clean, good
quality water. Refer 2.2 COOLANT MAINTENANCE in Section 6B3 – COOLING SYSTEM – GEN III V8
ENGINE in the VT Series II Service Information and 2.3 DRAINING AND FILLING COOLING SYSTEM in
Section 6B3 – ENGINE COOLING – GEN III V8 ENGINE in the VT Series II Service Information for the
necessary procedures and further information.
