Let $q$ be a prime and let $A$ be an elementary abelian group of order at least $q^{3}$ acting by automorphisms on a finite $q^{\prime }$-group $G$. We prove that if $|\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}_{\infty }(C_{G}(a))|\leq m$ for any $a\in A^{\#}$, then the order of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FE}_{\infty }(G)$ is $m$-bounded. If $F(C_{G}(a))$ has index at most $m$ in $C_{G}(a)$ for any $a\in A^{\#}$, then the index of $F_{2}(G)$ is $m$-bounded.
