Nissan 21060-V5200 Fan-Cooling

Disconnect the negative cable at the battery and place the cable out of the way so it cannot accidentally come in contact with the negative terminal of the battery, as this would once again allow power into the electrical system of the vehicle. Remove the radiator shroud retaining bolt securing the shroud to the upper crossmember. From under the vehicle, use a small screwdriver to remove the three retaining clips attaching the shroud to the radiator. Remove the clips by prying up on the retaining clip until the clip can be pried over its plastic retaining tab. At this point the shroud can be lifted out of the engine compartment. Remove the fan and fan coupling from the water pump by removing the four retaining nuts. To separate the fan from the fluid coupling, remove the four retaining bolts. The fan assembly is installed by reversing the above steps. Tighten all fasteners to the proper torque.

First of all, disconnect the negative battery cable and move it away. Then, take off the front bumper fascia. Next, disconnect the radiator fan's electrical connector. Remove the four nuts holding the radiator fan to the bars and lift off the fan and shroud by removing the four bolts. Reverse these steps for installation.
