When I had my air conditioning installed they told me that for some reason they had to hook up the switch that turned on the electric fans to the air conditioning. I think they said it had to do with needing to hook up both to my thermostat. Because of this my electric fans turn on whenever I turn on my air conditioning. I have an 180° thermostat. I have never had a problem with the truck overheating or getting hot when the air conditioning was on. I don’t know how much this helps but it might be something to try.
