[V8] Overheating, loss of electric fan 92 V8 4.2

[Dag Bøsterud]

My 92 V8 4.2 seems to be running a bit hot.

When driving along at 80 kmh (50 mph), the temperature is about 99 C / 210 F.
If I'm then slowing down to about 50 kmh or less, the temperature will rise to 105 C (221 F) or even as much as 110 C (230 F)!!
I had to set the climate control to "HI" to get the temperature down today, and it sank to about 99 C / 210 F.

I have tested the electric fan with diagnostics and it's working. It goes through all three speeds, but even at 110 C/ 230 F it has not started to run...

I have ordered two new temperature switches (035 919 369 M), and the thermostat is new (87 C / 188 F)

Hope someone can help me here...
