Radiator fan? Weird problem.?

Okay so I have been having problems with the engine overheating. Changed the radiator, hoses, thermostat, coolant temp sensor. There's good coolant circulation.



The fan works, but does not turn on when the engine heats up. The only way to get it on is to remove the wire connection from the coolant temperature sensor.



Its a 99 ford contour.

Sounds like you got a bad coolant temp sensor to me. If you hook the car up to the computer you should be able to see what the temp reading is from the sensor.
