hot engine, position of the radiator fan sensor, Celica ST165

[iTV]

Hi everybody, my main radiator fan doesnt work anymore and the engine gets hot, so I wanna check the sensor first, but I cant find it. It should be directly at the engine somewhere and has a green base... Can anybody please describe or better send me a picture, where I can see the exact position? There is a second sensor at the bottom of the radiator, but this one should be the sensor for the a/c fan... That one still works.

Thanks to everybody!

The rad fan sensor should be the one at the bottom of the rad. All the other temp sensors are on the "coolant tree" near where the upper rad hose attaches to the engine.

Thank you very much. I will check that out!

Also check your fan relay in the engine bay fuse box. I just recently replaced my own as it was cooked and only allowing my radiator fan to spin at 4 volts instead of receiving full power. It's a cheap and easy fix if that ends up being the issue

BTW it was the fan-motor itself.
