ok because I've been over heating lately, I replaced the water pump, t-Stat, temp sensor, I flush my block, i flushed the radiator, My fan takes awhile to turn on but the chiltons book says the computer doesn't turn the fan on until 221 Degrees F, I checked the voltage at the harness where it plugs into the fan and i get 14v also the fan is supposed to turn on high if my a/c is on and it doesn't turn on at all when i do turn the a/c on, my fan comes on around the same time it starts to overheat, this car is really starting to piss me off

ALSO,
The heater doesn't work, it doesn't blow out hot air out when it overheats, i flushed water through the heater core hoses and the water came out smoothly, there is nothing in my oil and nothing in the radiator water.

Is the stock restrictor still in the larger hose and are they on correctly? Also, is your blend working as it should?
As for the fan not coming on, sounds like your CCRM is dead. Check for power and ground at the box first and make sure all connectors are as they should be. There is a fuseable link for this box as well.
