What was the temperature at the engine coolant outlet, after the 35 mins idling?Hi Mac,
The car was idling for nearly 35 minutes and if left for any longer the coolant would start overflowing the tank. Obviously an abnormal situation.
The fan should kick but doesn't because as you say the temeprature at the outlet reads a continuous 16 degrees, so in the ECU's binary logic, all is good and it should keep the fan off.
But the hose is cold anyway and the sensor is not malfunctioning so something must be keeping the coolant in the block circuit stationary and not flowing as it should.
Or am I getting something wrong?

If less than 110 C, not overheating, (technically anyway).
Mac.
