My car runs cool with the a/c off, but whenever I use the a/c the car will get hot and stay around the M & A in NORMAL (city and highway driving).I checked under the hood and the low speed fan stays running with the a/c on but doesnt help cool the car down any.What do I need to check or fix?

Take a look at THIS THREAD. Maybe that will help. Have you done the fan switch mod yet?

You need to check for ground at pin 17 on the CCRM while the a/c is on. If it's not grounded, then you got some bad wiring. It's a light green wire with a purple stripe.

FWIW, my wiring was bone stock when I got the car (from what I can tell) and only low speed comes on with A/C (some say that high-speed comes on with A/C). I like it this way because I dont worry about burning out the high-speed fan connector as much (I can switch High speed on if I need it).

Chris's info is spot on.
Good luck.

wiring is stock without the fan recall and no I havent tried the manual fan switch yet.I will go check for ground at pin 17 and see what I get whenever it stops raining here.
