Did you replace your fan switch? Also if your car is running hot you can wire your fan to your battery so its running the entire time your car is on.

Check the fan motor by wiring it directly to the battery. If it won't run, the fan needs to be replaced.

If the hot-wired fan runs, check whether fuses 17 or 57 is blown or whether the fan relay under the hood is bad.

P0505 may indicate a bad IACV or an intake air/vacuum leak. Is the idle speed too low or too high?
