My cooling fan just stopped running suddenly. And the temperature began rising a little above average. What could be the cause?
And if it has to do with fuse, how do I locate the cooling fan fuse in the fuse box?

Thanks

Hi,

For some reason, the diesel model isn't listed in any of my manuals. However, I will try my best to help.

Keep in mind, the cooling fan motor itself may have failed. Take a look through this link to start to gain a better understanding of how it works:

I'm not sure if you have a single or double fan design. However, if you turn the A/C on, the fan should engage. Is that happening?

I don't have the pics of the fuse/relay boxes. But there should be a fuse and one or more relays . Let me know if you were able to locate them.
