i have a brand new koyo cap that came with the radiator i replaced. which did not solve my overheating problem so i disconnected that sensor waiting for the new one to come but it was the wrong one...oh and fans dont come on at all if that sensor is plugged in

before u changed the temp switch, did your fan come on when hot? because mine comes on without having to turn on the ac.

nope i didnt do any test...its been running fine since the temp switch. if you do change out your temp switch, you should be careful because i broke my brand new oem one. that is why i bought an ebay one that cost 1/3 of what the oem is.

Having the same problem now with my 1998 Gs400.
Changed thermostat
Changed radiator cap
New fluid
Car still overheats after a while and the fans are not turning on at all.
I even unplugged the temp switch, but the fans still do not turn on.
Does anyone know what I should try next?
any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
