check the fans... hot wire it to the battery and see if it works

put your ac to the max, blast it....all your fans (radiator) should turn on automatically...if not...then you know whats up

Re: 04 CR-V

when you say overheating does it go all the way up?
and when its running the temp will be fine? usually thats a fan problem...

hopefully its not the water pump....
