Also your headlights and indicators share the same earth, have you checked the earth?

It turns your AC off when you go to full acceleration to give you more power

Probably is just the starter and yes they can go just like that without warning.

I’m guessing it’s an auto?

If it was manual you could try bump starting it

I guess you haven’t put the new starter on?

I’m guessing that you are suspecting the cam belt has snapped or the engine has seized?

If so try turning the engine manually

Yes it could be the cause

I’m a little confused about what you have done.

If you take the relay out you should have 4 wires going to the relay socket.

One should be permanent/ignition live. The Fat one
One should be Earth. A thin one.
One should be from the ‘switch’ a thin one.
One should be wired directly to the fan, Another Fat one.

Check you have a perm/ig live with a test light or multi meter.
Check you have continuity to earth with another.
Connect the Fat Live to the other Fat live. The fan should come on.
Plug in the test light to the thin live from the switch and the other end to earth. Start the car heat it up, the light should come on when the fan would have otherwise kicked in.

By doing this you’re checking all the wireing, if it all works out good then it can only be the relay.

It sounds long winded but takes a few seconds, apart from the heating up the car bit.

Obviously if the test light doesn’t light up when the car gets hot, look towards the ‘switch’.

Why don’t you just test the relay?

Sometimes there is a cable to adjust that has slipped.

From what you’ve saint I’m pretty sure it’s going to be something like this.
