All of a sudden the light to my car started turning on, stating that it hot. I found out that it's got 2 fans & only 1 fan is working where the motor is. What could it be?

Thanks!

The red light (overheating) should not come on when only 1 fan is working. You
might have more than 1 problem. A bad fan and maybe a bad thermostat or
a broken water pump impeller.
