If the fan is coming on the thermostat is open & there is circulation from the pump. I would also reverse flush the radiator using a garden hose.

They should be close.
Hi Kev,


Like stated in my first post, I'm a noob regarding the dash diagnostics. How can I read that temp on the dash?
And what do you mean with "reverse flush the radiator"? Sounds like the opposite way of a normal flush. So that would mean pumping water the opposite way it should normally run?
Sorry for the noobish questions.
