Fluid leaks?

Ginormous air conditioning leak
Hey. I'm not sure if you were referring to my #3, lowside line w/ orifice in it. That would be the liquid line. Sorry about that. I'm not a tech but it's technically still the low pressure side :D. It has the orifice in it and also has a mesh screen filter on it. The orifice is embedded in the...- uss2defiant

Ginormous air conditioning leak
Replace all the seals Replace the shraedar valves Replace low side line w/ orifice in it Replace the dryer If the system is open you'll should be replacing these. Each item replaced also would require a certain amount of oil as well.- uss2defiant

Engine Rebuild
It may not be a head gasket issue. The PCV on the early version KJ is at the oil filler neck and the foaming in the neck does occur at colder climates and/or multiple short trips. Search the forum. It's an actual TSB. Unfortunately the parts for the TSB is no longer available.- uss2defiant

I want to say it should be okay as most modern battery packs have over current protection. YMMV- uss2defiant

I'm not Bill but anyways the e-rad fan is most likely a brushed motor, the replacement doorman is a brushed motor.... Given the age of the vehicle, the following could be the cause of the bad motor: 1. the brushes were probably worn down 2. dirt/debris/crud/corrosion build up internally...- uss2defiant

The e-rad fan only comes on at certain conditions. OPERATION The electric radiator cooling fan is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) through the radiator cooling fan relay. The PCM regulates fan operation based on input from the engine coolant temperature sensor, battery...- uss2defiant

yup. sounds like it. unless something was blocking it. intermittent fan spinning is a sign of a bad motor. been there done that. To clarify about the connector, just look at it where it mates, facing the male pins and the female side. inspect to see if anything is melted.- uss2defiant

dealing w/ the SSR is a pain and Bill's suggestions are great. I would start by inspecting the rad e-fan connector. They are known to go bad and have bad connection causing extreme heat in the connector and melting it. Whether or not you see any melted plasting, probe the rad e-fan connector...- uss2defiant

I've scoped the PWM from the PCM and it wasn't a PWM at all and it was just a 12V signal, if memory serves me right, this was way back in 2010.- uss2defiant

one thing to add is if your SSD relay is the same size as Tim's picture then you need to upgrade it to the beefier replacement. i don't remember if it was a TSB or a recall.- uss2defiant

Are you referring to the small hose going back to the expansion tank? that's the overflow hose for the coolant to flow back into the system. Seeing flow there is not an indication if the thermostat is good or bad.- uss2defiant

Heavy Duty Cooling (Trailer Tow)
I think you've accounted for everything. some 2003 to early 2002 are 2 wire fan with speed controlled via PWM. 3 wire fan is low speed or high speed. This is not dependent on the towing package. as a side note, some 2003 to early 2002 with the 45RFE tranny had the in-radiator tranny cooler...- uss2defiant
