ABSTRACT:
In apparatus and method for diagnosing radiator fan control system installed in a vehicular internal combustion engine, an engine coolant temperature Tw is detected and a failure in the radiator fan control system is determined when the detected engine coolant temperature Tw indicates a predetermined rise state and/or when a predetermined engine driving condition is detected, the predetermined engine driving condition being varied in correlation to a variation in an electrical load to the engine, and a variation width (drop width) in the detected engine driving condition is below a reference value during a switching of a rotation speed of a radiator fan by means of the radiator fan control system.
