Just changed a Nissan Sulphy radiator but radiator fans are not running but the engine temperature is normal and the engine check light is showing on the dashboard.what might be the problem ?
It is possible that the radiator fan could be malfunctioning, or the connection to the fan may not be properly installed. I recommend having a technician take a look at the fan and connections to ensure everything is properly connected and functioning correctly. Additionally, the engine check light might need to be reset after the replacement of the radiator.

2004 Ford Taurus got AC Clutch replaced and now a check engine light came on. Car seems to heat up ever since replaced AC. What could be the problem?
check to see if the radiator and A/C condenser are clear of airflow obstructions (damage, excessive leaves and dirt, etc). Check to make sure that the electric fans are running. There are 2 speeds. As it warms up, it should go slow, then when it gets hot, the fans should go to high speed. Check also to see if radiator is blocked up. It should be at engine temp on one side, and it should be cooler, but still warm, on the other side. Neglected coolant causing rust and debris blockages in the radiator are common to these cars. If the coolant is rusty and orange/brown, it may also indicate a failing water pump

Coolant lights come on and start flashing, check coolant and its foaming?
Possible that the engine is heating up more than required. Check the radiator cap or replace with the correct pressure type.
Check if the radiator is blocked , the water pump is defective or if the engine ports are blockes.
Do a full flushing of the radiator and refill with new coolant.
If the fault stays, check the engine timing , do a good tuning of the engine, check for friction of the traction so as the engine is not powered.
Comment on the info.

My 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee overheats in traffic
Check the fuse for the fan and use a test light to make sure that the circuit is functioning. Warm up your car then feel along the top and bottom of the radiator to check for cold spots. If you find any then you may need to replace your radiator. If your heater isn't currently working it may be that since it is a part of your cooling system.

Replacement of engine twice in 30 days
What code is it?? If your replacement engine is doing the very same thing the old one did...overheating, The problem is most likely the radiator or something besides the engine. When you replaced the engine, did you do it or did a shop take care of it? If a shop did it, they should have checked the condition of the radiator. 50% of the engine replacements that I do, I end up replacing the radiator because that was where the problem initially started.
