hello again ..i have a problem with my 94 prizm or corolla...first of i have replaced all the temp sensors and swicthes, water pump, radiator hoses and termostat also just to list what i haved replaced in the car so far...the temp gauge reads hot and my engine fan is not coming on when the engine warms up to operating temp, the only way it comes on is by removing the plug at the temp swicth for the fan , idk if its a ralay issue or what but i know its not the engine head gasket of anything that crazy of that matter i took the extra step and checked the engine with a compression gauge...anyone out there had this problem with there corolla in the past if so i need your help to figure it out, thank you for your input guys and ya if you have question regarding this just let them fly lmao

If the fan comes on when the sensor is disconnected, that circuit is OK.

Have you tried to actually measure the temperature to see if its too high? The sensor for the gauge may be bad.
