Air temperature or air conditioning. If A/C see other post. Air temp. could be the heater core stuck open letting hot air to rise out of the vents.

Have your a/c condensor fan check out, sit in back of the radiator, fan should always be on when a/c is on to reduce the freon pressure in the condensor or a/c will not get cold till air goes through the condensor while driving down the road, no air blows through at stop light because fan not working so a/c will not work right.

My 1996 Mercedes runs very well. I got it used and ever since I have always had issues with the Air conditioning. The car runs well and can travel any distance without the air conditioning on. If you turn...

Its you're ac compressor and its getting hot and sending an over load to the electrical system and shutting the car down because it has safety relays to keep from burning you're coils up you can try replacing ac relay but it will most likely just fix it temperarly where if you replace the ac relay & the commpresor you will not have any more problems and you should take to a dealer and have electrical system checked to make sure you haven't burned out Any other relays good luck

Heater blows hot air while car is moving but cold air while idling. The intake manifold was changed last spring, the thermostat has been changed 3 times and the temperature sending unit has been changed....

That sounds like the coolant level is low. If it is not the use of "stop leak" has probably caused a partial clog which restricts the flow of water unless the vehicle is turning higher RPMS. While sitting still raise the RPMS to about 2000 and see if the heater blows hot air to see if the above mentioned problems are fact.

Both Cooling Fans are not working in a 2000 Taurus.

Check at the connector going to the fans for current, also connect a hot wire to the fans there to see if they are burned out.
If fans are good you may have a problem with one of the coolant temp sensors, there is one that runs the gauge, and one that signals the fans to come on

Ac and commpressor come on but heater stays on also

your climate control shut off valve may not be stopping the hot water to shut at the heater core take 2 people one in the car and one under the hood follow your heater hoses at fire wall you will see the shut off valve person in the car will lower the air temp in the car that valve will move to stop hot water to enter your car good luck CJ

When sitting at light car runs hot, when moving car stop running hot

At idle, with engine hot, is the fan blade turning?

Theory is, at idle, need the fan to pull air though the radiator, at highway speeds, the air flows through without need for the fan.

1996 HONDA ACCORD RUNNING HOT WHEN STOPPED AT REDLIGHTS

Check that your Radiator fan is operating. The reason that it heats up when stopped is that there is no air flow thru the radiator. When the car is moving there is air flowing thru the radiator (the car is basically cutting thru the air).
