Engine overheating, cooling fan inop

[rgh409]

My 2015 Ram ecodiesel cooling fan has stopped working. I can't locate the fuse or the relay in the fuse block by the battery where the book says they should be located. The fan spins freely, only 55,000 miles. Any ideas?

I have a file I can email you, it is 3.5 mb so I can't paste it here. Send me your email and I will send it your way.

The fuse is on the positive battery terminal It's a z-case type fuse. Did you use jumper cables lately?

Thanks, found it and that was the problem. I t should be better protected from jumpers. It was hard to find a new one, dealer had to order. Dealer first told me it was the 3 way coolant valve so replaced that. Wasted $260.

Just fyi for future repairs. The 3 way valve is 179.00 at Mopar Parts Giant or Rock Auto.

can you elaborate a bit more on how to find this fuse ? the only fuses on the positive terminal are a 125 amp and a 250amp both are just black boxes and cant tell if blown.
