My accord overheats while I'm sitting in one place, while driving it is fine. So first, we assumed it was the radiator fan and made sure that the motor and any fuses connected to it were working. Then we replaced the radiator cooling fan switch. Finally, we replaced the thermostat and it still overheats. Now, the fan works when the car is off, but will not turn on when needed at say a stoplight.

Anybody have any ideas?????

 

possible head gasket

 

This link has a wealth of information about overheating. Maybe you can find the cause there. My vote is for<U> fan timer</U>, but you should read for yourself. Good Luck!

here's the fan controller for 95;


And the schematic from a 97;

 

if the fan doesnt come on at all while the cars running it could be the fan switch itself

 

check your temperature sensor, it may be bad. Don't buy one at autozone though

 

hi
i just want to tell you to look at the temperature sensor or the sensor that control the cooling fan there is a sensor that control the cooling fan check that....
