Does your fun run when the AC is turned on?. Check your FanCont2" and "FanCont3" fuses in the fuse compartment, if these are open, that will cause the code to pop, if either one burned, replace and reset computer with scanner. However you seem to have an actual issue, possibly with the fan motor, make sure your fan is running, also you could possibly have a semi closed stuck thermostat, remove it, then put it in a metal container with water, put it on the stove to heat up, once the water heats up the thermostat should open all the way, if it doesn't then replace it, either way, by testing it, you rule out that possible issue... Good luck.
hi judy. when the fan doesn't go round begin by checking the belt. if the belt broke, it may be on the highway somewhere and you never noticed it. With out the fan going, the car will heat up quickly. Get it fixed ASAP,
Your car has electric fans and they are activated by a switch that is mounted in the bottom of the radiator. What you need to do is verify first that the fan motor is good. After that then you want to "jumper" the switch and see if the fan runs. Jumpering is when you disconnect the wire from the switch and use a piece of wire to connect the wires of the harness together as if the switch was "turned on"..If the fan works then the switch is probably bad, If it doesn't then I would look for the fan "relay"..
if the fan does not increase speed as turned up replace resistor assembly usually in heater housing under dash.if doesn,t nave separate resistor assy.it is the fan switch
