I had this problem last year in September. I was driving at highway speeds and the AC was cold but in the city it wasn't as cold. It also overheated and stop and go traffic but when I was on the highway it didn't overheat. So yeah it was the fan and I fixed it but I already knew that before watching this video but it's still very entertaining So thanks.

I live in Az..its hot.. When I 4x4 I see that my truck kinda starts over heating when I really rush my truck... like climbing up hiills.. SO maybe i should rig up another fan in front of the condenser? would that interfere with the air flow? also cause more cooling with my ac?

[@marcofemto9417]

Mine started to smell like burnt rubber, and it's on all the time, toyota tundra. Should I replace it?

[@DAWSNx]

I have a problem with my Mercedes e300, fan sounds like a jet engine but I took it to my mechanic and they said nothing in the car is telling the fan to turn on, so they said I might need a new battery will cost me about $500-$600 plus the labor.

[@steveandrews8301]

If one of the two fans is working, should the other be working, also, at the same speed? Or is it computer controlled and additive, meaning does only one fan sometimes come on, normally, and the second fan only when needed? I've got one of the two fans that is acting sluggish when I first started the car, then stopped completely before the motor warmed up - not sure if this is normal or not. Thanks!

[@jacobcutshall6523]

my radiator fan doesn't run, and my ac acts exactly haw you described but everyone I asked says they're not related but none of them have looked at it can you tell me other reasons why both wouldn't work?

My 2011 ford taurus had the water pump replaced because of leak. But car over heats with running a/c and the fan doesn't shut off and it drains the battery. Please help Thank you

[@djdarrenrv]

2005 police crown vic ---- BRO I NEED HELP! been having overheating issues & replaced everything in the system. NOT overheating anymore but the radiator fan goes to high after only 5 mins of running. stays on high fan until shut off. replaced the radiator, water pump, CT sensor, HT sensor, thermostat (160), fresh coolant after 3 flushes. used a laser temp tool & highest reading on cyl or anywhere, is only 160 degrees. fan will be on HIGH with that LOW temp. CANT FIGURE IT OUT & NEED TO SELL!. NO ENGINE CODES.

[@sweet49101]

i think my cooling fan may be bad, i was sitting idle with the A/C on and i noticed the temperature gauge was getting high but as soon as i turned the A/C off the gauge went back to normal… it was also normal when i was driving and it sounds like i can hear the fan when i’m in a drive thru… it’s also hot af in texas right now

[@papajoewil10]

Did you replace the fan and fix the issue?

I have Five Hendard, the car suddenly overheats, the air conditioner becomes hot and the fan is not working, what's the reason?

[@ScantPear]

My car has both clutch and electric fan

[@rockyk1395]

My fan only comes on to cool down engine. It doesn't come on when I use the ac.

[@bignic7786]

I have a 2010 Tahoe cI have power on both the negative and the power sides to the fan wire Anyone no what that could be

[@RarelyRuby]

Can a malfunctioning fan be intermittent? My car's temperature light came on, car was overheating when idle with the AC on, and days later without the AC on. Can't seem to replicate it again though 🤔

[@cenchloraadums3143]

Looks like you've got a faulty cooling fan. Try replacing the fan motor before it eventually stops working completely.

[@RarelyRuby]

@@cenchloraadums3143 you're not wrong. Unfortunately the fan motor gave out about 2 days after posting my comment. But I was able to replace it and now thankfully everything seems to be working great!

[@tagle8540]

Will this cause the air flow to be weak coming from the vents also?

[@jasondeaver2117]

No

[@futbolista13]

What is the cause of a fan running loud. There are not check engine or other temperature sensors on. Is the motor bad or do I need to replace the whole fan assembly?

[@bloved9850]

Your motor is bad lol

[@bloved9850]

Jk

[@curtischung1009]

High/low control module

[@curtischung1009]

Or could be the temp sensor that’s relaying false information and causing the fan to run at high speeds when it really shouldn’t need too much

[@mikedior3089]

so my ac randomly breaks.. I drive the car without ac for 2 days or so before I noticed the car was heating more the usual, and then all of a sudden I notice my engine fans weren’t turning on

[@aaliyahjackson251]

I’m having this same problem as well

[@wrx3853]

Noticed my second fan doesn’t turn on when it hits 200 degrees

[@brendacalderon9445]

Mine is making loud noises when Ac is on and when its not. And alternator and battery light popping on and off, seldom. I just had Nissan replace alternator, so I know its not that. Their now saying its the radiator fan wobbling. But it wasn't doing it prior to alternator fix. This is so annoying. 2013 jx35

[@aaliyahjackson251]

I’m having some of these same issues as well it’s just that my fan is not working nor is my A/c

[@brendacalderon9445]

​@@aaliyahjackson251 my ac had a leak also. I think it should be a recall on these fans.

[@derakbell8143]

I just ordered new fans and shroud. I replaced relays already didn't fix it. Remember if yoy order new fans also get a new coolant temp sensor as well

[@dandline3535]

Coolant temp sensor ?? You mean the thermostat???

[@terrimichelle6941]

Where is the fuse for the fan not the blower on a nissan versa note 2016 sv

[@printisdead1983]

Every part of my cooling system works and every component of the ac works.but my radiator fan stopped working and apparently thats why my ac isnt working

[@KathyLenhart-OneLove4Life]

Hi why would the fan stop working on a 2017 Chevy Suburban

[@curtischung1009]

Many of reasons. Could be lost of proper voltage/ground. Is the low and high speed not working or both all together ? If you have proper voltage and a strong ground to your connector. You should try take the fan off and jump the power and ground to the pins. (Note) don’t worry which pin is negative and positive. It’s a dc motor so you won’t hurt anything if you’re worried about crossing the wires. Fan will just spin backwards if anything. But try to supply external power and ground to the control module and if that don’t work. Your narrowed down to a bad control module or motor. You can also by pass the module and juice directly to the motor. If your fan starts spinning after juicing directly to the motor. Your culprit is the control module. Hope this helped. And goodluck with your problems!

[@TrueLifeVW09]

My smaller cooler fan stopped working

[@redinstrumental7535]

What if it's always on even on a cold morning or weather ? And no engine light on

[@mics1694]

Possible that your air conditioning pressure sensor is malfunctioning.

Thermostat

[@noahhuraan5353]

I have no issues with a/c, my car just slowly starts to overheat at idle, when i got forward again its fine

[@lamontrouse9916]

I’m having an issue where as though my fan keeps running after I turn the car off and it drains my battery, I just changed the fan and it’s still doing the same thing, what do I do?

[@jasondeaver2117]

Sounds like the relay

[@BryanG830]

Think I found my issue. My cars AC gets iced cold at higher speeds and semi cold at lower speeds. The cooling fans don't work at all not even when the ac is on. However, I tap the fan motor and it turns on. And I wanted to say it was a bad thermostat or bad ECT sensor and the relays and fuses but I replaced everything. Fan still don't work. The engines temperature stays at 195° when I'm driving the car. But at a stop light or stop sign for too long and it'll overheat.

[@hectorsalvador8337]

I have the exact same issue except my fans do come on but then immediately turn off every other minute making the car overheat. Not sure if u should just replace the whole radiator fan or if it may be another issue.

Ive got the same problem in my 2005 mustang gt my ac will be cold sometimes and then sometimes not because the fan wil switch on and off

[@derakbell8143]

Thats normal it turns on and off to regulate temp not to keep running. The problem is when yoy turn ac on and fans don't come on at all when idle or at a stop light which will make the car start to overheat.

What if your cooling fan won’t stop when the cars off causing the battery to die?

What if the fan runs but your temperature rises when it's idling or low speeds? Fan runs constantly, even when you've cut the engine. Water pump and radiator are fine. Could it still be the fan?

Did you find out?

[@curtischung1009]

Fan speed controller. Or a stuck closed relay. Should check both to eliminate the problem
