- 2014 Ford Fiesta
I own a 2014 Fiesta with 67k miles. I was sitting in the parking lot when my AC started blowing warm air and my car started to overheat. I turned the heater on to bring the temperature down and drove it hope. When I got home I realized the fan wasn't working, (even when the AC was turned on). My car will stay within normal temps and my AC will blow cold air if I am moving. The AC only blows warm air when I'm at a standstill and the car only overheats if I am sitting at a standstill with the AC turned on.
I replaced the fuse and relay but it didn't have any effect. I assumed my fan had went bad again, (I had it replaced at 37k miles due to failure), so I replaced the fan. I tested the old fan when I pulled it and it was also in working order. My next step was to to bleed the coolant from the valve located at the top of the radiator and it still had no effect. I'm at a loss to what could be causing the issue. Someone told me to replace the coolant sensor so that will be my next step. I am a little confused though, would a coolant sensor stop the fan from coming on when the AC is turned on? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
