I was battling an intermittent overheating issue with my 06 GT since mid July and just solved it. I replaced the thermostat, I removed the radiator and had it tested, replaced the radiator cap and replaced the cooling fan assembly with a new one from Ford but still had the issue. My old fan had a burned power wire going into the resistor but this plugin itself looked fine. My problem was in the BEC (power distribution box) in the engine bay. I loosened the 4 bolts in that box which then allowed the wiring harness connectors to drop out. The wiring pin for the high speed fan relay was burned up and had melted the connector housing and the terminal on the BEC was also burned. I got a salvage BEC with the wiring harness connectors attached to it and used the connector from it to repin my factory wiring into it. I used the unburned wire (green/violet) from the salvage connector and joined it to my wiring harness after cutting off the burned wire. I installed the new BEC and reconnected the new unburned connector and reassembled it all and after test driving it voila, problem solved!!! I spent so many hours trying to figure out my problem. I was about to replace the PCM when I checked this BEC. I had no codes and sometimes the fan worked but when driving it the fan would stop working. I even encountered this video before when trouble shooting my issue but it was not the problem for me. There is another S197 mustang online that had the exact same issue I had. I hope that my comments here might help somebody battling the same problem I had. The new fan assembly has a redesigned resistor so I think the old resistor design caused my problem. What I don’t understand though is why it burned up the wiring in the BEC and the green 40A cooling fan fuse did not blow. Makes no sense to me. This was the biggest mystery I ever had with a car!! On the plus side I learned a lot about my car’s cooling system and the electrical stuff as well 😊

[@TopHipTheAlchemist]

I done went through 5+ BEC harnesses within 1 year, the same problem keeps happening to mine. They just keep burning…

[@Aviyaytor]

My 07 fan crapped out today, and my Mustang overheated. I will check this out in am. Thank you for the fix, my friend!

[@georgemartinez4864]

Aviyaytor did it work? How did u get the cable out?

[@ProFaisal_]

I’m so grateful and I don’t know how i thank you, because I paid a lot of money to figure this problem which i had with my 07 mustang GT and no body could figure that problem, thanks again bro, sincerely. 🙏🏻

[@pingkhee2139]

Your muffler sounds like shit. It is a nuisance to everybody at CC. I just want you to know that. We all hate it.

[@BrandiDuncanRealtor]

Thank you for this video. Your lexicon is amazing!

[@garywesterkamp5286]

I not only thank you but my daughter thanks you. Great video. Never would have thought of this. I agree the best DIY video i have ever seen Thanks

[@marioservin5584]

Thank you! This video help me a lot to fix same problem to my 2014 GT Ford Mustang

[@giuseppelafronza3833]

one of the best DIY video's I've seen. A complete idiot could do this job with your instructions. Keep teaching brother

[@richardcraniumdicksinn3959]

Thanks for the video. My fan is inop. Happens on a blue moon. I will check it out on my 06' gt. I like the car but it can piss me off. ✌

[@jay4money29]

Thank you for the video. I have this problem on 07 mustang

[@London1091]

Was your fan still running when your car was off?

[@bjpowerequipment1023]

Great video, thank you very much.

[@mikemcgyver3254]

Ive had the same problem, replaced the relay box, entire wiring harness and fan. It's worked for a couple years and is starting to burn up connectors yet again.

[@christopherbolin2835]

This was very informative but it didn’t cause my fan to start up. Any other suggestions 2009 Gt/Cs

[@jimg691]

Thanks man, very helpfull.

[@55p1d33]

This just happen to my car Now u say that happen cuz fan pulling to many amp so fan need to be replace 2?

[@larryfonseca5217]

Big help thank you

[@RastamanBuilds]

👍🏽

[@georgemartinez4864]

thanks for the vid, i think the same thing happened to my mustang. the radiator works when i give it power individually but one day, when i washed it i think i got water into the cable and the radiator wont spin now (it still works if given power individually) One question i have is, how did you get the cable out of there?

[@roberthull4257]

Thanks for your video. I can't get power to my fan. Two of the three wires are showing 14 volts but the third is not showing power. Does it go to a heat switch? 05 mustang.

[@احمد-ل7ف6ر]

Good job👌🏼

[@RastamanBuilds]

Thx

[@keithsims86]

I'm having this issue with my 07Gt

[@s197_mj3]

How did you get the harness out?

[@RastamanBuilds]

I carefully pulled it up

[@georgemartinez4864]

How did u separate the cables?

[@roylewis440]

Now this is really professional

[@donterichardson6390]

What is this part called

[@RidgeReaper68]

So was it just the connector the fan or the resistor or all?

[@leomedina5614]

Any help would be appreciated but I have a 08 mustang gt and I have an issue with my A/C. Even though I changed the actuators and blower motor resistor it’s still not blowing. What can be the issue? Maybe the fan?

[@FrederickVillaruel]

Did you check the fuses? i just got this problem on my v6 06 I just bought a new fan, waiting for it. I did all the test and for me (fingers crossed) its the resistor.

[@leomedina5614]

Frederick Villaruel Well I checked the fan and it wasn’t that either. It’s actually working even the compressor but it’s still not blowing. So I really don’t know what it could be

[@FrederickVillaruel]

Leo Medina Try checking the resistor in the blower motor. There is a KZbin video for that that is fairly new I think for that resistor.

[@FrederickVillaruel]

Leo Medina just don’t take it to a shop yet, save your money lol do as much as you can

[@FrederickVillaruel]

Leo Medina run a parasitic test, that usually helps

[@shsk8880]

did it ever burn again?

[@RastamanBuilds]

Not that I am aware

[@arcadioortiz8163]

What if it works all the time?

[@rockodashpr]

Hey man i have a 2008 Ford Mustang GT/CS With 40K Miles on it Just hopeing another Mustang owner of the S197 family can help me figure out what possibly could be wrong Again my car is a 2008 GT/CS My problem is the car is slowly overheating strangely after my A.C stoped working the car seems to only overheat when at idle But the car WONT overheat while I am driving it any ideas? I would appreciate it Car doesn’t have white smoke out the tailpipes Car haven’t lost any power Car radiator doesn’t have any milky water or cap Car doesn’t have any water bubbles out the radiator But i can smell antifreeze when it starts to overheat

[@calvineldridge8699]

Check the fuse box under the hood. You have 2 relays, (high speed and low speed) pull them out and see if there’s anything melting where they plug in. Best thing to do is just remove them 4 bolts (after disconnecting battery) lift up the top layer, and see if the high speed and low speed connector is burnt in the BCM.

[@lorenzosotelo8074]

Hey I have the same problem with mine I can smell the anti freeze and the temp goes up and then back down after a bit and I can’t figure it out you fixed it yet if so what was the problem?

[@gabrielacabrera6250]

So what's the faulty connection , ,?

[@morereps1]

This just happened to my Mustang, unfortunately my fan motor went bad.

[@jito8019]

In my case I wish the motor is what went wrong haha. I've been searching for days for my problem.

[@georgemartinez4864]

Did u fix it? If so how did u get it out?

[@mustangmadness4143]

He should have Soldered the wires together and put some heat shrink with the glue inside it over the soldered connection. I am not a fan of crimps on wiring.

[@RastamanBuilds]

Ok

[@klolwtf6973]

you forgot to mention kopr shield.

[@shurdi3]

What happened to your voice throughout the years?

[@gjjcgmail9930]

Good video. How do you remove this resistor. Did you just pry it off? Are there any tabs. I am afraid of breaking off any tabs. Also, how do I remove the plug from the harness? Thanks!

[@georgemartinez4864]

GJJC Gmail hey, did you ever figure it out?

[@christopherbolin2835]

It’s a screw on the front and bolt on back
