It is your fan. Disconnect it at the radiator,and run some jumper wires to the battery.I ran the wires through the sterring column on my 95 sl1 and installed a toggle switch. If it even tries to get over a guater hot,I flip the switch. It cools down instantly!
The easiest way to see if a head gasket is blown is to check the oil, if it is light brown and milky looking then the head gasket is blown. My 1998 Saturn would always overheat. I had replaced the radiator twice and all of the hoses but it continued to happen. The people at Saturn did not know the problem. I brought it to a raditor place and the replaced the gauge that reads the temperature and fixed the problem. The gauge was reading at a much lower temperature than the car really was so the fan would not turn on to cool down the car causing it to overheat. This might be your problem. There is a chemical that can be added to the coolant that will expose exhaust fumes. The head gasket may be fine, but overheating will endanger it. overheating could also be caused by a bad engine coolant temperature sensor, or a bad thermostat, possibly even a bad PCM. ** Only the top answer to this question actually ANSWERS the question.
If the electric cooling fan(s) are not coming on that may be the problem.

how to replace the thermostat on a 2005 saturn relay3
It most likely means that your thermostat has gone bad. The engine of your car is running too cold and you need to get a new thermostat installed.
location of the thermostat in 2002 Saturn sl sedan
Drain the water from the cooling system of your 1992 Saturn. Remove the water hose. Remove the thermostat housing retaining bolts. Take the thermostat out. Reverse the process to install the new thermostat.
The thermostat on a 1995 Saturn SL1 is located on top of the motor. The largest hose coming off the radiator will have to be loosened to access the thermostat housing on the motor.
An auto thermostat is strictly a mechanical device, so no.
The thermostat is usually located on the lower hose, where it attaches to the radiator
Follow the top radiator hose to the engine, what that mounts to is the thermostat housing, remove this and there is your thermostat. * ** *** **** ***** Actually, on my 1997 SL2, the thermostat is on the bottom radiator hose. I would check the "Saturn Thermostat Pictures" link below, which also has installation and removal instructions.
