Several common problems;
First the cooling matrix gets blocked up as there is no filter in the air system so leaf mould, dust, durt & insects all end up plastered across the the fine matrix (cleaned), see below;

Another problem is the fan motor might be corroded up, water from the windscreen can overflow and falls straight on top of the front air box and lets water into the system which gathers in the bottom of the motor housing see the link below;
