  Q: How to replace the fan shroud on Chevrolet Venture?

  A:

  Before installing the new Fan Shroud, check both the electric coolant fan caution and the damaged Fan Blade caution as safety precautions. Checks for unusual noises or vibrations within the engine area should lead to blade inspection and cleaning for foreign materials. The cooling fan assembly including shroud can be removed through clockwise rotation of cooling fan nuts. Remove the shroud cooling fans by detaching the cooling fan nuts. The first step is to disconnect motor electrical wires followed by Fan Motor screw removal which enables the removal of fan motors from their position inside the cooling Fan Shroud. Heat shields must be taken out from the cooling Fan Shroud. The heat shields should be attached to the cooling Fan Shroud before installing the fan motors. You must tighten the Fan Motor screws until they reach 6 nm (53 inch lbs.) before joining the cooling Fan Motor electrical connectors. The installation of cooling fans onto the shroud requires counterclockwise rotation of fan nuts while tightening them to 6 nm (53 inch lbs.). Reposition the cooling fan assembly together with its shroud for completion of the installation.

  Q: How to service and repair the fan shroud on Chevrolet Venture?

  A:

  The first task before servicing or repairing the Fan Shroud should be shutting off the ignition to stop electric fan activation that might begin while the engine is off thus possibly causing injury. Replace immediately any Fan Blade or housing which shows bent or damage or cracking to prevent personal injuries alongside vehicle damage. Any abnormal engine compartment noise or vibration should lead to an inspection which includes cleaning this abnormal material from around the cooling fan blades. Start by taking off both the cooling fan and cooling Fan Shroud before proceeding to detach the cooling fans from their motors that were attached to the cooling Fan Shroud. The second step involves taking off the cooling Fan Motor heat shields from the cooling Fan Shroud. First install the cooling Fan Motor heat shields to the cooling Fan Shroud before adding cooling fan motors and cooling fans and completing the installation stage with the cooling fans and the cooling Fan Shroud.
