Vehicle: 1993 Chevrolet Caprice Classic LTZ 5.7 V8 GAS

DESCRIPTION

This system uses two coolant fans, wired in parallel, both fans run whenever cooling is required.

The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has two coolant fan outputs, one each for high and low speed. When PCM low speed output is turned on at connector C2 (terminal 11), it grounds the low speed coolant fan relay's coil. If ignition switch is in the RUN position, the relay's contacts close, completing the circuit to the cooling fans. The coolant fan resistor lowers voltage to the left side coolant fan, which causes it to run at low speed. Since the...

If the rear (secondary) brake system fails, initial brake pedal movement will cause the unrestricted secondary piston to bottom in the master cylinder bore. Primary piston movement will displace hydraulic fluid in the primary section of the master cylinder to actuate the front brake system.

If the front (primary) brake system fails,...
