In the diagrams down below I have included the instructions for the removal and installation of your vehicle's thermostat from the vehicle manufacturer. Please go through the guide and get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thank you Mr. Alex, I did as you instructed and everything is working fine now.
I removed the thermostat yesterday and drove it for 8 kilometer with fan on automatic start and stop and everything seems to be very much okay now.
Thank you very much sir.
