Main Switch Assembly
This is a documented pattern failure where internal contact degradation causes intermittent power loss to the cooling fan circuit. When the switch fails, the cooling fan will not energize even when the engine reaches critical temperatures, triggering the dash warning. Replacing the switch assembly restores the necessary electrical continuity for the ECU to manage fan cycles.

Thermostat Assembly
A mechanical failure of the thermostat's thermal expansion element prevents the valve from opening. This restricts coolant flow to the radiator, causing the engine block to overheat while the radiator remain relatively cool. This part is the primary mechanical regulator of the cooling system's thermal equilibrium.

Coolant Reservoir Hose
Small leaks at the connection between the recovery tank and the radiator allow the system to draw in air during the cooling phase. This creates an air pocket or 'bubble' in the cylinder head, which prevents proper coolant circulation and leads to the 'Overheating Warning' due to steam pockets forming near the temperature sensor.
