Potenially a bad temperature sensor or bad contact on the wire connector. Test for set voltage resistance according to temperature.
Try replacing the radiator fuse relay
i would replace fan relay, before replacing thermostat. the relay acts as a thermostat for the fan, turning fan on and off when needed
Drain the radiator. disconnect the top radiator hose from the engine. Remove the water inlet that the hose was hooked to. The thermostat is in the housing. Replace the gasket when replacing the thermostat.
Follow the upper radiator hose from the radiator to the engine and at the engine you will find a housing with the thermostat inside. When replacing it make sure the spring goes toward the engine.
the thermostat will be under the THERMOSTAT HOUSING, which is where the TOP radiator hose fits on ie(radiator to thermostat housing) this keeps the engine at an OPTIMUM temperature BUT can be A cause of OVERHEATING IF malfunctioning
No. The thermostat controls the flow of water through the radiator, not the heating core. Using a thermostat with a higher temperature rating delay the opening of the thermostat (and the flow of water to the radiator) until that higher temperature is reached. This will cause the coolant to run hotter.
I have a 94 Toyota 4wd turck....I replace the radiator. it was plugged up. Water wont circulation. Fixed my problem
check your thermostat to see if its opening.
The cost varies widely depending on the make and year of the vehicle.

The Thermostat opening & Closing, The cooling fans cycling on and off, the engine working harder than the cooling system can handle. an air bubble in the cooling system, to mention a few
The thermostat is located underneath the radiator hose where it connects to the engine. The thermostat regulates the engine's temperature.
