My fan stopped working. is there a fuse that i am able to change and if so where is it. it started to overheat. also can i check radiator fluid and fill if needed.

Did you change the thermostat? If not opening properly or far enough, that could be the cause of your overheating.

Use heater full blast with windows open to add additional cooling till you locate the source of the problem.

You have a three pin coolant sensor. Replace it. Along with the T stat.

How did you check thermostat? Did you check coolant level. Is the auxiliary water pump leakinh

Place car on a steep incline or raise front end up higher than the heater core. Now, add coolant to the radiator as needed, with engine warmed up. It sounds like the radiator is lower than the heater core causing an air lock and if that is the case this will allow the air bubbles to escape.

you will need to change your relay most likely in your fuse box ,,put some glasses on to see the fuse diagram to find your relay ...change it ,,,it is wearing out and causing your fan to kick off and on

check fluid levels in radiator, old radiator fluid flush system and replace fluid with new, bad radiator cap, bad thermostat, bad radiator hoses collapsing or you need to take your radiator to radiator shop or buy a new one. If you have electric fans make sure they are comming on when engine is at idle possible bad temp. switch on electrical fan.

Three quick ideas. Make sure the vehicle sits overnight and check the radiator fluid level
in the radiator itself. If it gets low you will get an air pocket causing overheat. Also check
the reserve tank to be sure it doesn't have a crack or a hose fallen off which would cause an air pocket in the engine block by emptying fluid instead of recirculating. There
should always be fluid in the reserve tank.

Second, radiator cooling fan not coming on. If your air conditioner is not working well at
stop lights, then this is usually the culprit, since the fan helps to move air across the air conditioning coils. Everybody replaces relays but generally it is the motor becoming intermittent, since they are open framed and exposed to the elements.

Third is the thermostat may be stuck in the closed position, which will cause overheat.
Hope this helps.

Hello and welcome to FixYa! If you have overheating problem, it can lead to multipleissues. You may be running on low coolant that's why the vehicle overheats. Ifthat's the case, please add coolant and make sure that it sits on the rightlevel, too much coolant can cause overheating too for coolant will overflow. The vehicle may have a faulty or worn out radiator blowermotor that's why it overheats. If that's the case then you will need a blowermotor replacement to resolve the issue. If the radiator is clogged with dirt and rusts this issueoccurs too. The coolant doesn't flow normally on the cooling system if it'sclogged. If that's the case, I strongly suggest that you have the radiatorflushed to drain out dirt and rusts. If you think that the radiator served youenough then it's better to have it replaced. Please do check the radiator hoses, If you have worn outhoses it can cause coolant leakage which can result to overheating. A tiny holeis good enough for the vehicle to overheat. A faulty thermostat sensor can cause the issue too. If youhave worn out thermostat, the fan may not trigger that's why the fan won't workwhen under stressed conditions. A blown radiator blower fuse can cause thisissue too so I suggest that you check the radiator blower fuse and replace itwhen necessary. What causes the radiator blower fan fuse to blow? It's becauseof a failing radiator blower motor, If that's the case have the radiator blowerfan motor replaced. If the fluid in radiator doesn't circulate then it meansthat you have a blown head gasket or a faulty water pump. I suggest that you gofor the water pump replacement first specially if you think that it's near theend of it's service life. Usually, water pops out the radiator when engine isreved (a sign of faulty water pump and possible blown head gasket). Hope you find this information helpful enough and thank youfor using FixYa! Have a good one!

Two things you can check: First pull your oil dipstick and make sure that the oil is clear and not cloudy or milky, if it is you have a blown head gasket. Secondly if the vehicle has an electric fan make sure that it is coming on. You can do this by starting up the vehicle and letting it warm up for 10min or so or until the guage shows that it is hot. Then look under the hood to see if the fan is turning, you may have to watch it for a few min because they will cycle on and off. If the fan doesn't come on, that is why it overheats in town because it is not getting enough airflow across the radiator. If the fan does not come on you can start troubleshooting it by checking the fuses and relays in the dash and under the hood. If the relays and fuses are good and the fan still won't come on, with the key on and engine off, carefully wiggle the wire that goes into the fan, these sometimes make bad connections, but again be careful because if that is the issue the fan will begin spinning so watch your hands and fingers.

You have to check the main relay fan fuse relay and disconnect the fan and try it directly to make sure the fan motor is fine if all this is well into the cavity where the thermostat is a thermal switch that sends it relay the signal to the fan you can disconnect and the fan has to start working if this works the problem is you have the thermal switch.
