Default More cooling problems...

for some reason my electric fans have never worked so i had to turn on my defrost or a/c to get them to come one but now for some reason they wont turn on at all and there is no way to keep my car cool unless its moving. The a/c just recently stopped blowing cold air also. Anyone know whats up please let me know thanks.

Did you check the relays for the fans and the wiring? Check you freeon level for the ac. if you have freeon (i think it's 3lbs) you compressor might have gone out or the a/c clutch? If no freeon you probably have a leak on one of the hoses

If the fuses and relays are fine I'd check the cooling temp switch. Mine went bad and wouldnt turn the fans on. You could also get a manual fan switch also.

Make sure no one re-wired the fan circuit. Somone did it to mine, and they are always running. Rather have them running than not, but it isn't stock wiring.
