A/C fan not working. * i personally think that its because your ac its making your engine work harder. don't forget your ac compressor goes conected to your crankshaft pulley. so when it engages your engine needs to work harder to keep your car working without any noticeable changes. engine needs to work harder to run a/c, u may need auto idle adjusted to compensate for faster engine speed when a/c is switched on u an usually feel engine bog down a little if this is the case when a/c is switched on a good example of the power needed to run a/c can be experienced by doing the following when out on highway doing the speed limit, with a/c switched on, try to pass another vehicle while going up a hill then do same thing on another hill but as you sart to pass vehicle, switch off a/c. you will noticably see and feel car goa lttle faster

Why is your AC not working in your 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager. The AC stopped working 2 days ago and now the van overheats. I had it checked and they said both fans aren't working?
You probably have a bad thermostat. The thermostat controls the flow of coolant throughout the engine. It is controlled by a copper spring that opens up at a certain temperature (hot) to send coolant to the rest of the engine. When the engine is cold it shuts until it gets warm then opens up so the engine doesn't overheat. If your thermostat is closed the engine will over heat. That's the overheating problem. Its only about a ten dollar part and relative easy to fix. As far as the AC goes it might be related to the thermostat or your clutch on the AC pump may be bad.

Generally when the engine is hot or the AC is on.
