You temperature gauge is not moving at all? What is the starting point of your temperature gauge? After vehicle runs for a few minutes, does the gauge move at all?
Snap picture of gauge, from cold engine and 10 minutes later...........

No Movement at all at all
it a double Fan radiator and it comes with Ac
The ran start immediately as i turn on the Engine but the Temperature Guage never move oo

i have drive it more than 5 minute but not more than 40 speedometer never been on long road but this weekend i should go far and maybe that when i will know thanks i will reply back to this thread on update

ur car is overcooling...for ur fan to be running direct I'm sure ur thermostat has been removed

u sound like a first time car owner and I wldnt wanna burst ur bubble

over cooling is why ur temp isn't rising,and its bad for ur car in d long run

yes you right first time owner but been driving for pass 10 years lol

so what do you think i should do? should i leave it like that or should i get the thermostat install? kindly give me the best option
thanks

Confirm thermostat has been removed and reinstall please. Hoping the wiring has not been tampered with.

yep i got to know it has been remove
is it advisable to use it like that in other thread i learn that using direct fan without thermostat could make the engine consume more fuel and also ware the enginer itself
if only fuel consumption am still ok by that but if it the enginer wearing that will not ok by me

That car got overheating issue before but the previous owner got the overheating suppressed by the removal of thermostat and fan running direct .So the car will still overheat again unless you make attempt to find the root cause of the overheating and resolve .Seem u already have a leak since u are already topping up the coolant to require level which can be the reason for the previous overheating condition .

but while driving without AC the Temperature is Normal And the Guage moving is just one bit?
only detect that while driving long distance and Ac on that when the Overheating will Start What do u Advance me to DO Sir

Image One is when am on long distance with Ac on when it start moving up
The Second Image is when i was driving in my area also with AC on

where is your location sir??

70 does not mean your car is overheating. Overheating starts from when the temp gauge reads 110 celcius and above.

Don't panic unnecessarily!

Ijaiye After abule Egba in lagos

honmusa:

where is your location sir??

on sunday when it started the over heating while on AC it reach the Middle point of the Guage when i was driving before i park and put water on the radiator

it reach the middle point while The AC was on after about 30 minute driving nonstop before i park to let the gas of the heat pressure comes down before i added water to it but while i park i notice that my fan was not working then i saw the connector that makes the fan to work i fix it and the fan started working back ,
but what is bothering me is that after some minute on road again with ac on the gauge will rise to 70, as it reaches that i use to off the Ac back, cause i dont want it to over it again but then the Fan was working perfectly..

secondly
while driving around my area with AC on the Gauge always stays down not even 10 % up on temperature guage i need you all to give me idea
thanks all

Your temperature gauge is temperamental...... It seems to only rise when your vehicle has already started overheating.......
Have you had a look at your thermostat?

Take vehicle to a proper mechanic for mechanical evaluation

ok thanks but to see best and good mechanic is the problem this days
