My 84 corvette starting overheating (more than normal) and I found the radiator fan was not moving and the motor not running. Is there anything I need to look at other than replacing the motor? I was told there could be sensors or something also but I don't know where to look for these. Thanks!

The sensor for the fan should be in the cylinder head on the drivers side. But before you start stuff like that check your relays as there should be on e for the fan, it may be on the drivers fenderwell. Also when you turn your a/c on your fan should start. Make sure when you r car starts to overheat shut the car off and place your hand on different spots on the radiator. If you fell cold spots the radiator needs to be replaced as it should be the same temp all over.
