It should be the cooling fan relay not fuse. check to see if fan motor is good . run test wires from battery to fan motor to see if it works. if it works its probably the relay

i would take the radiator to a radiator shop and have it flow tested sometimes they are hard to bleed the air out i usually hook my coolant pressure tester up and push the air out

SOURCE: cooling fan

Whoever told you the temperature gauge on cavalier is normal 3/4th is the lie. It is however in operating temperature range but on the hot side. Have you flushed your coolant and replaced thermostate, and gotten air vapor locks out.

SOURCE: 1985 Chevrolet Celebrity radiator fan stopped

you need to change the CTS ( coolant temp sensor ) that is what operates the coolant fan. turns on at 222 degrees and off at 219 degrees

My electric cooling fans arent working, or appear not to be working. my radiator was boiling a few days ago, does this sound like a problem?

yes it does, check the relays to the fans, and also the fuses, they should be in the under the hood fuse box, once you determine that the fans work ( turn on the ac and see if it starts it should ) you can move that relay to the normal fan relay spot, ( if you have 2 fans ) if your car still over heats after knowing the fans are working,, check the thermostat

THE CAR KEEP OVER HEATING

Blow out the radiator core from the engine side with compressed air to remove bugs and other debris. Make sure the cooling fan comes on when the engine gets to operating temp. If the car car has AC, turn it on which should start the fan immediately. If no fan action, try to turn the fan blade(s) which should turn easily with no noises. Check the fan fuse and fan relay. If the fan(s) come on fine, check the coolant level in the radiator core--it should be right at the top. Check the seal on the cap and replace it if it is decayed or damaged. Make sure the reservoir bottle is filled to the line and the connecting hose is in good shape. It is possible that the thermostat is sticking and not opening fully. Also, check the intake and outlet hoses to and from the radiator for firm condition without decay, collapse, or other damage. A hose can sometimes peel away a portion of the hose interior which can cause blocking. Hope some of this helps!

Overheating on a 2001 malibu after thermostat has been replaced. We have replaced the thermostat, however the temp gage still registers over the 1/2 way mark.

Check the cooling fan, its sensor, the relay, the fuse. On most cars the fan is not needed on the highway, but engine overheats it it doesn't switch on inside the city. Also, clean the system with a special liquid according to the directions on the can and use coolant after that, water causes corrosion. While pouring/filling/cleaning, keep the heat switch on max heating to allw circulation via the heating radiator.

OVER HEATS

Fill over flow bottle right to the top and run engine....watch for bubbles.
If you see bubbles you may have a bad head gasket or a possibly a cracked head.

This allows combustion gases into the cooling system and the system just can't dump that amount of added heat.

ONLY ONE FAN WORKING SEEMS OTHER IS STUCK CAR OVER HEATS AND CUTS OFF..WONT HOLD WATER BUT CAR STILL HEATS UP FAST WHEN THERE IS WATER IN IT

sound like a warped head, cracked head, or a head gasket. Have the radiator pressure tested and check the engine compression. As for the fan check fan relay and fuses other than that could be wiring or bad fan motor.
