Gates FCM152 Engine Cooling Fan Module

Engine Cooling Control for Select Kia and Hyundai Models

The Gates FCM152 engine cooling fan module regulates electric cooling fan speed to help maintain stable engine coolant temperature. It is a direct-fit cooling system control component for select Kia, Hyundai, and Dodge applications, including Kia Rio, Hyundai Accent, and Hyundai Veloster models.

Gates Engine Cooling Fan Module line focuses on precise fan control for vehicles that rely on electronically managed cooling. By modulating fan operation instead of running the fan at full output all the time, this module helps reduce unnecessary energy loss while supporting consistent cooling performance.

This part cross-references OE number 253851M000 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Cooling fan not responding at the correct speed
• Engine temperature fluctuations caused by fan control failure
• Electric fan operation that stays on too long or cycles incorrectly
• Cooling system warning lights related to fan control faults
• Loss of proper airflow management through the radiator and condenser area

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, pin count, and mounting space before installation. This module uses two female connectors, with a 3-pin connector on one side and a 2-pin connector on the other, so matching the vehicle harness is important. Confirm the vehicle uses a cooling fan resistor or engine cooling fan module before replacement, and compare the original part number to FCM152 when servicing Kia Forte, Kia Rio, Hyundai Accent, or Hyundai Veloster cooling fan control systems.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures this engine cooling fan module as part of its cooling system control lineup for select OE-style applications. The FCM152 is specified to support precise fan-speed control in vehicles that depend on electronic cooling management.
