check your wiring for your fan jump the plug on your thermostat housing with a paperclip with the car key turned on not started. the fan should come on if not u need to check your wiring.

I feel you on this one. I replaced everything on my girls 98 accord and that thing still over heats. Fan, switches, relays, head gasket, water pump, radiator, hoses. So I just threw a switch on it and told her to turn it on whenever she drives. Not the best thing because its not proper but their was nothing left to replace besides doing a complete overhaul main bearings and ring etc. You can take wire and jump your fan straight to the battery to make sure it works.
