the engine temperature has to get to 225 degrees Fahrenheit to turn on. If the engine is reaching 230 degrees and it is not turning on the sensor for the engine cooling fan is most likely the culprit. As for the fan operation of the fan with the a/c that is normal

How does the fan work?
If the question is about the motor fan or engine fan, the main function of this fan is cooling the radiator of the engine which in turn is cooling the water circulating inside the engine unto the radiator and back. This keeps the engine at a fairly operable temperature without overheating and damaging damaging its parts.
What is the purpose of the thermostatic switch in a cycling clutch system?
A thermostatic clutch is usually used on a car's engine cooling fan. It uses a bi-metallic spring, which tightens and forces the fan to turn when the air temperature inside the engine compartment reaches a certain level. Basically is used to prevent the fan from wasting your engine's power when there is no need for cooling, by allowing the fan to freewheel when the engine is cold. It then serves as a device to automatically engage the fan and keep the engine cool when necessary.
1993 Nissan altima what does the engine coolant temp sensor do?
I believe it turns on and off the fan (1 out of 2) that cools the engine according to the temperature it's at. If it doesn't work the engine may not know to turn the fan on and the engine could overheat. Here's a tip. When you turn on your A/C or Heater, both fans come on. The A/C cooling fan and the Engine Cooling fan.

On a Mazda 6 the engine cooling fan now runs all the time what is wrong?
Answermost likely it is the engine temp. sensor that tells the fan the motor is hot if it is going bad then it can make the fan run non stopI have the same problem in mazda6 2004 2.3l engine. If you have $100 you go to the dealer and get the update for compute unit, it is a bug in it. If you do not have money turn of the heater fan than engine is cold, as soon as engine warms up the fan will turn off.
