My 1997 honda accord started to get high temp on the gauge a few days ago, this happened before so i replaed the thermostat and that fixed it, its back again. The fluid in the resevor and the radiator are good so i dont know what could be making the car get high temp then when i shut it off the fan just runs for a while and shuts off. any help would be great.

thanks

Hi hillz, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Check and test the coolant temperature sensor and the engine coolant temperature switch.
