    Most likely the fan switch is faulty, either gets stuck on or in your case stuck off

    This happened on my old 51 plate focus.

    Disconnect signal wire for air con from behind heater fan switch.

    This will disable auto switch-on of air con when demisting at a fast speed but air con will still operate with air con switch.

    Have you checked the coolant level, because my Focus' fan kept coming on with no irregular temperature gauge, but the I checked the coolant level and it was low. I've just had the Thermostat Housing replaced, as this is where the leak was.

    Just an idea?
