The fan must run,or the motor will overheat. My 95 sc1 was overheating. The fan was not comming on. So I ran test wires to the battery and the fan came on.Must be a bad relay somewhere.So I ran wires from the fan to a switch I installed on the dash.Anytime the temperature gets near halfway,I turn on the fan and it drops to a quartar. Hope this helps.

Why is your refrigerator not cooling?

If the compressor is running, either the compressor has an internal fault or the refrigerant has been lost. If the compressor is not running the thermostat or the compressor may have failed. If the compressor is getting hot and switching off at regular intervals, the refrigerant has been lost. In any case a refrigeration engineer visit will be needed to prove the fault.
