you have relay switches that act like a type of fuse, when the relay switch goes out, your fans will not kick on. you can replace it (about $100), or drive and continue to run the heater at all times to get the fans to come on and drop the temp on the car.
Yes! Also a good flush will improve its performance. And may stop the overheating.
It means your engine is overheating. You should pull over and stop the car immediately if that light comes on. Overheating can ruin an engine quickly.
Replacing a bad water pump can help to stop a motor from overheating. Hopefully that was the cause of the overheating. If it does not stop the overheating, try replacing the thermostat. Make sure you have the proper mix of antifreeze and water, the radiator filled with it. Check the level of coolant FIRST. Next, the hoses, and third the thermostat. Then, disconnect a hose and see if, by starting the vehicle, if there's water pressure. If not, its water pump time!
radiator plugged.or coolant low
It is overheating or the oil preasure is low. It probably needs a new engine.
If it is running hot then you need to service the cooling system. Drain and flush the radiator, replace the thermostat, check the operation of the water pump, see if the cooling fan is operating properly, and make sure the belts are tight and not slipping. Another possibility is a blown head gasket. Removing the thermostat is not the answer to an overheating problem.
Black duct tape
Thermal relay is stuck. Replace it.
cooling fan relay is bad?
After the engine has cooled to a certain temp, it should shut off. If it is running constantly, this is an indication the engine is overheating.
no
If coolant can't cycle through all the components because of the kink then yes but if it doesn't stop or slow the flow then I don't think so
