Subaru Outback (BR): Cooling fan, hose and connections
Your vehicle employs an electric cooling fan which is thermostatically controlled
to operate when the engine coolant reaches a specific temperature.
If the radiator cooling fan does not operate even when the coolant temperature
high warning light illuminates, the cooling fan circuit may be defective. Check
the fuse and replace it if necessary. Refer to “Fuses” F11-46 and “Fuses and circuits”
F12-10. If the fuse is not blown, have the cooling system checked by your SUBARU
dealer.
If frequent addition of coolant is necessary, there may be a leak in the engine
cooling system. It is recommended that the cooling system and connections be checked
for leaks, damage, or looseness.
READ NEXT:
Check the coolant level at each fuel stop.
1. Check the coolant level on the outside of the reservoir while the engine is
cool.
2. If the level is close to or lower than the “LOW” level mark
WARNING
Never attempt to remove the radiator cap until the engine has been shut off and
has cooled down completely. Since the coolant is under pressure, you may suffer
serious burns from a spray
