WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Chevrolet Trax and 2018 Buick Encore. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Inoperative in All Speeds
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G10 Cooling Fan Motor.
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between the ground circuit and B+.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates
- Test or replace the G10 Cooling Fan Motor. Replace the cooling fan fuses if necessary.
Low or High Speed Inoperative
- Disconnect the following cooling fan relays, ignition ON:
- KR20C Cooling Fan Low Speed Relay
- KR20P Cooling Fan Medium Speed Relay
- KR20D Cooling Fan High Speed Relay
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between ground and each of the cooling fan relay B+ circuit terminals listed below:
- KR20C Cooling Fan Low Speed Relay terminal 30
- KR20P Cooling Fan Medium Speed Relay terminal 30
- KR20D Cooling Fan High Speed Relay terminal 30
- If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the appropriate relay B+ circuit, end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G10 Cooling Fan Motor.
- Test for infinite resistance between the appropriate relay controlled output circuit terminal listed below and ground:
- KR20C Cooling Fan Low Speed Relay terminal 87
- KR20P Cooling Fan Medium Speed Relay terminal 87
- KR20D Cooling Fan High Speed Relay terminal 87
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, test or replace the G10 Cooling Fan Motor, replace the fuse as necessary.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates
- Ignition OFF, install all of the previously removed KR20 Cooling Fan Relays. Disconnect the harness connector at the G10 Cooling Fan Motor, ignition ON.
- Command the cooling fan ON at high or low speed as appropriate with a scan tool.
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between ground and the G10 Cooling Fan Motor B+ circuit terminal.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate at each terminal
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp.
- Disconnect the appropriate relay from the list below:
- KR20C Cooling Fan Low Speed Relay
- KR20P Cooling Fan Medium Speed Relay
- KR20D Cooling Fan High Speed Relay
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the relay controlled output circuit, end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, test or replace the relay.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminate at each terminal
- Test or replace the G10 Cooling Fan Motor.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
