• Q: How to service the electric cooling fan motor on 2004 Toyota Echo?

  A: The procedure for servicing an electric cooling fan motor requires draining the engine coolant and unconnecting the upper radiator hose from the radiator. You must begin service of the electric cooling fan motor by uninstalling the upper radiator support and then disconnecting both the cooling fan connector and reservoir hose before you remove the bolted-down cooling fan. The fan motor removal workflow starts with removing the fan and its nut as well as taking out the fan motor through 3 screw removal. Reinstallation starts with installing the fan motor through its 3 screws but the screws must reach a torque value of 3.82 Nm (39 kgf-cm, 34 ft. lbs.). After mounting the fan it should get tightened with the nut to reach 6.18 Nm (63 kgf-cm, 55 inch lbs.). Install the cooling fan by tightening its 3 bolts to 7.5 Nm (76 kgf-cm, 66 inch lbs.) and establish the cooling fan connector. Follow the sequence of reconnecting the upper radiator hose to the radiator and installing both the radiator upper support and filling the engine with coolant before starting the engine to verify for leakage.
