What does the AC off due to high engine temperature symbol mean?
A symbol appeared on my dashboard yesterday when my AC stopped working. I looked it up and it was the AC off due to the high engine temp symbol. But what does that mean?

The AC being off due to high engine temperature symbol means the PCM detects too much heat in your engine or the electric cooling fan stopped working. The A/C is turned off to avoid overheating.
Here’s what to look out for when your car displays AC off due to high engine temp:
- Coolant level for leaks
- Worn radiator
- Leaking hoses
- Dirty air filter
When your dashboard displays this symbol, you’ll want to take your car to a mechanic to have the source of the problem identified and fixed before it causes your engine to overheat which might lead to an expensive repair. Thankfully, shopping for
