Your Electric Cooling Fan is Not Functioning Properly?
Is your car AC not functioning properly? If your answer is yes, there is a high probability that your electric cooling fan is not functioning properly. Most of the times, we tend to ignore the overheating of the car, thinking the air conditioning is at fault.
But actually, in a high percentage of cases it is the cooling fan which is at fault. Talking in technical terms, the efficiency of the Car's engine depends, among other factors, on the amount of heat removed from it. And responsible for removing this heat is the cooling fan. Not long ago, belt driven fans were used, but these days , electric cooling fans are used which are more efficient than their belt driven counterparts.
An electric cooling fan is basically made up of two parts- a fan motor and the circuit, which consists of the fan switch and the relay. The switch sends power or ground to the relay. It is the function of the switch in an electric cooling fan to sense the internal temperature and switch on the cooling if required. Usually, when the car is running on the highway, due to high speeds, engine gets the cool air required from the environment itself, so there is no need for the cooling fan. But when the car is being driven at a very low speed or the engine is idling, the engine requires additional airflow to keep it from overheating.
This additional airflow is provided by the electric cooling fan. The proper upkeep and maintenance of the electric cooling fan is vital to your car's performance. If you are planning to take your car to a doctor for a check up (I mean a mechanic), make sure it is a qualified mechanic. A qualified mechanic has various ways to check whether the electric cooling fan is in proper working condition or not.
One of the ways a mechanic is most likely to use is to directly check the source. He would verify whether there is proper power supply and ground given to the electric fan motor. Another way to identify any problems with your electric cooling fan is to supply a 12V power to the motor and see if it runs. Electric cooling fans are a dangerous car part and must be looked after with extreme care. They not only save power but also help in reducing the noise of the vehicle. So always keep in mind, a healthy electric cooling fan means a healthy car.

Does turning the air conditioner on help cool my V6 Pontiac Fiero Formula?
I had a bad day today as my '88 Pontiac Fiero Formula stalled in the middle of traffic. It just stopped and completely turned off. I tried turning it back on, but nothing at all was working. I get a tow truck and it takes me and my car home. As soon as the car came off the tow truck, the driver says he can look at it. I put the key in and suddenly everything turns on! WOW. $144 bucks down the drain. He tells me the engine must have overheated. True. I call some Fiero experts and they tell me I should have turn on the AC to normal and it would have been fine. Will turning on the AC really work? Will the AC cool the engine as well? Educated opinions please. Thank you!

How do I break an AC (cooler) without it looking like I did it purposely?
The reason is I live in an apartment with a crappy ac unit. Everyone has gotten a new one except me. The cooler is old and not energy efficient. It cost alot of money just to run it. I shouldn't have to feel this way. My cooler has been here since the 1940s or later. Its old! Its disgusting and dusty. People who have just moved in are getting or have gotten new ones. I dont even want to run mine anymore...It doenst work well. I have to run it all day in order to cool down my house which cost a lot of money that I dont have. How do I break it so that it'll look like I didnt purposely break it? Thank you..
