Where can I find the relay for the coolant fan?

We'll I can't seem to find the coolant fan ( radiator) on my volvo s40 2005 I googled it an everything nothing seems to pop up help please

There is NO cooling fan relay on the 05' S-40, (That's why "Nothing came up" on the google search) The operation of the cooling fan is controlled by the CFCM (Cooling Fan Control Module) by a "Class 2 message" received from the PCM (Powertrain Control Module)



NOTE: You are going about this backwards, you should provide the complete vehicle information (S-40 I or S-40 T-5)

The problem that you are having (No cooling fan operation, A/C not cooling...etc.) and then we can point you in the right direction, instead of trying to diagnose the problem yourself (if you have no knowledge of the operation of the cooling fan system on the offending vehicle)

This vehicle has very sophisticated electronics and you can cause thousands of dollars of damage to the electronics by putting powers or grounds where they don't belong.

Please update your question to include the problem you are having and we will try our best to give you an accurate test procedure or identify the problem!



The CFCM is component # 17 on the component locator chart



What you are looking for is an electrical component locator. You can try this link http://bit.ly/1jQMar3 and see if that helps. But the trouble with generically available information is that it is not always helpful.

If you are working on your car often you would benefit from a subscription to a paid information source such as Alldata DIY ( http://www.alldatadiy.com/ ). A one year subscription costs about $26 a year. That's pretty darn good, and you'll have wads of information about the whole car that you can access at any time.

This is what it should look like http://m.ebay.com/itm/321336125521?nav=S...

Or there is a climate control - cooling fan controller http://m.oreillyauto.com/mt/www.oreillya...
