Overheating

Recommended Posts

I have a 2011 Edge, I just replaced the cooling fan assembly a couple of days ago. When I turn the A/C on, it begins to overheat. I noticed that the fan kicks on when the a/c is turned on but it shuts off after a couple of seconds and on and off. Than it begins to overheat and blow hot air. Any ideas what it could be?

I bought a dan unit from O'Reilly as well and it's not working... It's looking like I'll have to drop some more money on a Motorcraft one. I'm still having overheating issues. Plugged in my wireless obd2 scanner and the temp starts getting past 230 and the needle rises, neither fan is moving... Not good

It's been reported that on some of the aftermarket fan centers, the connection pin outs are wrong in the fan center connector (the one the car's harness connects t.

 

You could do a pin-by-pin trace and figure out which pins need to be swapped in tbe connector. (Believe it was only two wires that were in the wrong pin slots). (Possibly a cut and switch on the two wires. Easier then r&r with a new unit).
