My temp gauge reads 120 but my car is not overheating. Aux fan constantly stays on. Checked the fuses and does not have a problem. I changed the thermostat and waterpump no longer than 6months ago. Any ideas or 2nd opinion

Can you give more info on your car?

Is it equipped with a viscous clutch fan. If so, replace it with a quality dealership one. Not Chinese Behr shit.
