My 2001 North Star deville is running hot. Less than a month ago my rad, thermo, water lml, was replaced my car is still overheating. What could possibly be wrong, I had all this work done and still it's doing the same thing as if nothing had been replaced. Plz I need some help

Was the cooling system fully flushed when you had all of the work done? Also, are you sure that the fan is operating properly (I assume that was not replaced)? It has a temp sensor that only kicks the fan on when it hits the required temperature (the computer initiates the fan at that point).

A check of the fan, its temp sensor, and your computer may be required.

I am assuming water lml is a water pump.

If all of that was replaced properly then the only two things it could be is a bad fan (or electronics not turning the fan on) or a blown head gasket/bad engine.
