Hoses will be hard when the system is hot. If fans not coming on then that is the cause of overheating so check fuses and relays to the fans.

In the fuse block under the hood. There is only one fan radiator relay that you know of, because that is the only one that I found, and if this is the problem, could you give me a rough estimate on this relay, price wise, if this is the problem
