    2001 focus overheating

    I'm having an issue with my 2001 overheating while I'm in traffic for an
    extended period of time. There are no leaks and the anti-freeze is at the
    proper level.

    Any help would be much appreciated

    Have you checked the radiator fan comes on?

    Honestly I can't say if it comes on when the AC is off, but it does when
    it's on.

    I’ve been having the same problem, I already had a pressure test done
    twice and no leaks were found... The last tech told me it might be a
    water pump, or timing belt problem... Now I freak out everytime I’m
    stuck on traffic, because the temperature just starts to rise, so I
    have to shut down the car until traffic stars to move... Can’t wait to
    get rid of this car!!

    Are you sure that the cooling fan is switching on? The fan should only
    cut in if the engine gets hot such as when you are stuck in a traffic..
    If you have Air Con there will be two fans.

    Have you checked the fuses in the engine compartment fuse box?

    Fuses 6 and 29 are associated with the air con fan (30 Amp /Green)

    Fuse 65 (30 Amps/Green) is for the engine cooling Fan
