I have a 98 Honda Accord with 195k. I have recently replaced the temperature sensor along with the proper coolant. My car still overheats while sitting still. The fans will not come on unless I have the AC on. I have checked all the fuses and the fuses are all fine. What else may be the problem?

Hi blueline1,

Check the radiaror fan switch located on the thermostat housing. Remove the socket and bridge with a jumper wire. Tuen ignition switch ON and the fans should work.
If not you need to check for broken wire circuit on the Green wire from fan relay to fan switch and from switch to ground at left front of engine
