Removing the radiator fan Nissan X-Trail 2007 - 2014

Note:

Remove the cooling fan only  on a cold engine.

Before removing the Nissan X-Trail cooling fan, you will first need to remove the air duct and drain the coolant.

Coolant drain on Nissan X-Trail

1.  Install the car on a flyover or other elevation.

2.  Raise the hood cover and fix it with an emphasis.

3.  To relieve pressure in the cooling system, slowly turn the radiator cap counterclockwise.

4.  Remove the cover.

5.  Turn off and remove a cover of a broad tank.

6.  Get under the car. Use a flat screwdriver to pull out the caps and remove the protection.

7.  Place a container under the radiator drain tap.

8.  Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the drain bolt on the radiator.

9.  Wait until the antifreeze is completely drained.

10.  Replace the rubber gasket on the drain bolt and screw the bolt back on.

Removing the Nissan X-Trail Radiator Fan

1. Squeeze the spring clamp with pliers and disconnect the upper hose from the cooling radiator.

2. In the same way, disconnect the expansion tank hose from the radiator filler neck.

3. Press the latches and disconnect the 2 wire blocks from the fans.

4. Disconnect the wiring harness and expansion tank hose from the Nissan X-Trail cooling fan.

5. Using a 10 mm socket wrench , remove the 2 electric fan mounting bolts.

6. Remove the Nissan X-Trail radiator fan assembly with shroud.

7. Wash the fan.

8.  If the fan is not working, replace it with a new one.

9. Install the Nissan X-Trail engine cooling fan in the reverse order of removal. 

10.  Install the air duct in the reverse order of removal.

11.  Fill the engine cooling system by slowly pouring coolant into the radiator to the level of the vapor tube.

Note:

To prevent air locks from forming, pour antifreeze into the radiator very slowly (filling speed should not exceed 2 liters per minute). 

12.  Close the radiator cap tightly.

Note:

When the engine is running, the cooling system is under pressure, so coolant may leak from under a loosely wrapped plug or the plug may be torn off.

13.  Add antifreeze to the expansion tank up to the “MAX” mark .

Note:

Do not fill the fluid reservoir above the MAX mark, as the volume will increase when the engine is running.

14.  Tightly wrap the reservoir lid. If antifreeze is spilled on wires, painted or plastic body parts, wipe them off immediately with a clean rag.

15.  Warm up the engine to operating temperature (Nissan X-Trail cooling fans should turn on at least 2 times) and stop. When the engine is cool, check the level of antifreeze in the expansion tank. If necessary, bring it up to standard.
