My radiator fan is not working and my car keeps over heating. If I replace that will it fix the over heating?

I found you a diagram in "prodemand" (at bottom)
Here's your possibilities
1) blown fuse or
a) short in a wire
b) bad or disconnected connection
2) bad relay
3) engine coolant temperature switch (bad or disconnected)
4) the fan motor
a) fried/ shot/ kaput!
b) something jammed into fan, etc. Preventing it from turning
5) pcm (least likely- least welcomed)
I kinda listed these in the order i'd check 'em, this might also be in less $ to more $ order too.
The diagram gives locations for these items, if you need any more help with any of this
All you gotta do is ask! (i'll do my best)
