On a lot of cars the fan often doesn't cut on till nearly in the red which is quite normal .

If it's not cutting in at all after all that has been replaced , it only leaves the fan motor or the wiring to check .

If you are worried about it , tap into the wiring and fit a manual flick switch which you could then use if fan does not kick in automatically .

Depends if its a mk1 or mk2 , later cars have a relay fastened to fan cowl ,early cars are controlled by engine Ecu/Bsi, Some models/ years had two temp sensors on gearbox side apparently

Because i was change ;
• termostat,
• relay,
• temperature sensor
• checked fan
• checked radiator
• reset bsi
• hot water circulates all hose
