HOW CAN I FIX FORD ESCORT 1997 AIRCON?

MY CARS AIRCON SWITCH ITSELF ON WHEN DRIVING
IT CAUSES THE CAR TO OVERHEAT AND THEN IT JUST CUTS OUT I HAVE TO WAIT A FEW HOURS BEFORE IT WILL START AGAIN .I HAVE REMOVE THE AIRCONS FUSE AND THE CAR DRIVES FINE BUT THE AIRCON LIGHT STILL COME ON .WHEN THE CAR IDLES IT SOMETIMES GOES UP TO 2000RPM WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON

i would like some more specific information:
Air conditioning is a system separate from the engine cooling system. How these two can interact I'd like to know
My best guess is your fan wires or your aircon wires have overheated and melted together, so when either starts working the other starts too, but not properly.
