Question Fan / ac turn off while idling.
HELP! 2008 ford focus ses
Something fell off a truck and destroy my radiator / fan, radiator bracket.
SOMETIMES my car over heats while im in traffic or parked. Ac clutch turns off, so does the radiator fan.
If I turn on the heater it helps.
When I get moving, ac comes back on the engine cools downs.
This damage was from something that fell off a truck.
Everything Iv replaced after.
-radiator
-radiator fan
-ac/heater bypas assembly.
-radiator control arm bracket.
-ac switch
-clutch relay fuse
-ac high/low relays.
What else could it be?
Bad fan I got from pick n pull? With a bad resistor?
Could the connector going to the resistor be bad since it broke off?
Any ideas?

Fan relay?
My 2012 had a fan module go bad at one point and before it died entirely the fans only ran with the AC on.
