Functional description

The supply for fan N11 arrives directly from the battery from the line for the maxifuse FAN 1 of B99 : the fan therefore works when it receives an earth command. The specific relays J30 and J31 for the cooling system have coils supplied by the direct line (EFI) protected by fuse F5 of the additional fuse box B98A . They are energized by an earth signal coming from the engine control unit M10 . If the engine coolant temperature reaches the first temperature stage, or the 4 stage pressure switch K10 (pin 3) signals to the control unit M10 that the first pressure stage has been reached, then the control unit M10 sends an earth signal to the 1st speed fan relay J30 which energizes the coil. The relay then sends an earth signal which, via the additional resistance O10 , operates the fan N11 which rotates at the first (slow) speed. If the engine coolant reaches a higher temperature level or the 4-stage pressure switch K10 (pin 6) signals to the control unit M10 that a higher pressure stage has been reached, then the control unit M10 sends an earth signal to the 2nd speed fan relay J31 which energizes the coil. The relay then sends an earth signal directly to the fan N11 which rotates at the maximum speed.
