WARNINGBefore fault-tracing can begin, the engine cooling fan (FC) connector must be disconnected to prevent the engine cooling fan (FC) engaging. Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) ECM-6110 Engine cooling fan (FC) control module may be stored. After fault-tracing the connector must be reconnected.

Note. This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor freezes. This may happen if the coolant level is low or there is too little glycol in the coolant. Check the engine coolant level and its freezing point. Remedy as necessary.

HINT: The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can be caused by a thermostat that doesn't open.
