very vague diagnosis from your mechanic.

anyway probably your fan is faulty for the AC reason why the temperature goes up only when it is on. let the mechanic replace the thermostat if faulty.

let a rewire check your fan motor and replace if faulty

you should not run fan direct or remove thermostat without proper plan to replace it.

goodluck

2011 corolla please don’t remove the thermostat permanently, it’s a great mistake you will get to regret later.
The REPLACE the thermostat it’s a cheap fix, thermostat is sold for 2k max. Check the fan... this is a recent car and if you take out the thermostat the car won’t balance again
