open the hood and look for it
There is usually an ECT (engine coolant temp) sensor and a CTS (coolant temp sensor) located around the thermostat housing mounted in the intake. One sends coolant temp to the guage, the other sends temp to computer.
In the 2000 Kia Sephia, the coolant temperature sensor is typically located on the engine block, near the thermostat housing. The coolant temperature heater switch is usually found near the engine's cooling system, sometimes integrated with the thermostat or nearby. For precise locations, it's recommended to consult the vehicle's service manual or a repair guide specific to your model.
Engine coolant temp low, thermostat failed.

No
the coolant temp is below the regulated temperature.. replace the thermostat and temp sender switch
Temp sensor is next to the thermostat housing. Relay is in the fuse box. Computer is in control. There is no temp switch.
The coolant fan is triggered by a temperature sensitive switch. when coolant reaches a certain temp it turns the fan on. When the coolant drops below that temp it shuts off the fan. The ignition switch plays no part in the operation of the cooling fan.
Check water pump repl. thermosat repl coolant repl. water temp. switch swap coolant fan Problem solved when repl. cooling fan relay it had an Intermitent problem. sometimes the electric cooling fan would come on then it would not when temp. was at it peak no fan after repl the relay it worked properly.
