I did and it wont spin when cutting the A/C on and i let it run and the temp still increased. So would it be just the fan or something else also?I did and it wont spin when cutting the A/C on and i let it run and the temp still increased. So would it be just the fan or something else also?

The ac fan only comes on when the ac is on , the engine fan comes on at engine operating temp . few things to check , the radiator core fins are free from rubbish leave or plastic bags , the thermostat is fully open , radiator tubes are blocked with gunk have it flow tested .
the usual suspects are:
stuck shut thermostat
clogged raiator
dead water pump
low coolant level
it's sunday, rovers don't work on sunday.
Then again, maybe its wednesday, rovers take half a day then.
IF your symptoms are when driving , the temp gauge acts normal rising slowly. Then all of the sudden it goes high and a second or two later it goes back to normal. Then you have low coolant in the engine. The reason this happens is because of air pockets. Air pockets are much hotter than the coolant. Check for coolant leaks...
This is normal. The ECM monitors engine temperature and increases idle when it sees the engine is cold. The ECM sets the idle back to normal when engine temperature rises.
Mostly likely being the temperature gauge isnt going to the normal position usually indicates a problem with your engines thermostat, this problem with the thermostat usually is accompanied by poor heater output so if your heater isnt getting as hot as it use to chances are your thermostat is opening to soon or is stuck in the open position which is why your temp gauge isnt rising to the normal halfway point like it should...
Hi Code P 0217 does point to the thermostat but it also points to the wiring, cooling system, and the temperature sensor, to check the thermostat start engine then once the temperature gauge in the car reaches normal the thermostat should open and the top hose that goes into the radiator will warm up quickly as the thermostat opens, if the thermostat is stuck in it's open position the top hose will start warming up before the engine reaches it's working temperature, hopefully i have explained it clearly,
Check the connection to the gauge temperature sensor sender, it may be loose or making a poor connection.
If no fault found with above connections, the next step would be to replace the gauge temperature sensor unit.
I did and it wont spin when cutting the A/C on and i let it run and the temp still increased. So would it be just the fan or something else also?
I changed the electric fan relay ($50)

Fan is working perfectly.
