Overheating, Still!

Blackzx3,Sep 6 2007, 04:17 PM Wrote:Before we get carried away was just reading through have you checked the relays?  There are two relays for the fans one is low speed the other is high speed.  As well you should make sure to check if there is power going to the fan.  Could be the low speed motor is not working.  Another thing to check is turn on your AC and see if the fans kick in and which one is running.  From what I recall it should turn on the low speed fan. 

Yeah I changed my resistor out, Its really easy honestly.  If I still had the focus I would take pics to show you.  There should be pictures on focaljet.  From what I recall the part is about $60-70 from ford.  If there is someone close with a known working resistor pack, and you can test theirs frist to see if that fixes your problem that would be best. 

If that doesn't solve your problem another spot to check is the CHT sensor on the zetec.  This is a real PITA to replace, you have to remove the alternator. 

I thought the resistor pack was why my fans went.  But it didn't cure my problem, then my ac went, and finally came down to the pcm was not grounding the relays anymore to activate the fans and ac.  Therefore my car is now at some wholesaler in the gta.

I might be going to campbellford next weekend (sept. 15) if you haven't figured it out by then I can always stop by and see if I can give you a hand in pin pointing what your problem might be.

The low speed fan seems to come on when I put on the A/C. The car doesn't overheat. I've ordered the part, $65.00. I'll keep you informed as to the progress, and thanks for the advice.
