2009 Chevy Cobalt LT 2.2 L4 ecotec
Hi, good evening all. I am new to this forum and therefore not sure if this topic has been discussed, but here goes. I was driving yesterday when I noticed the coolant temperature was going up to 235 degrees when the traffic slows, so i kept turning of the engine whenever i stopped even for the shortest while. as soon as i could, i pulled off and went to check the radiator fan and realize it was spinning slower than it should, i toggled the connection a little and the speed improved but slowed again when i let go. after about 10 minutes driving the car just died; cranked but wouldn't start. I noticed that my power outlet was also dead. i got it towed home and today while inspecting it i noticed the ground cable that bolts on the transmission close to the fan was loose, i also realize that the sockets for the injectors only had 2.9 volts and after changing the outlet fuse, it opened again which leads me to think there is a short somewhere. any help will be greatly appreciated, pleeease!!...and thanks
