My 2000 xc is still having engine temp problems with the a/c on. I drove on the freeway yesterday for 40-50 miles with the ac on and it was fine. We pulled off the freeway and withing a few minutes the temp started to climb rather quickly. I just got in from doing some looking around under the hood. The fan does come on with the ac. The compressor is coming on as well. I let it get completely up to temp in my driveway and then took it for a ride around the neighborhood. When I saw the temp starting to rise I pulled over to see if the fan was still running and indeed it was. My new question is could this be a thermostat problem? I don't think so becaue it runs at the correct temp always with the ac off. I was told to check the resistance at the engine coolant temp sensor but I do not know where that is. And also i was told what the ohm reading should be at different temps. but what do those temps mean? 68, 104, and 212 degrees. What are those temps of??

As always, any help will be appreciated.
