Peugeot 301 Overheating

My 2012 Peugeot 301 with a gasoline engine is overheating because of a defective radiator fan. The check engine light is on, and the mileage is 289302 km. Could a defective speed sensor be the cause?

I have a 301 too. I had a similar radiator fan problem. Have you checked the thermal switch? It might be the switch, not the sensor.

Thanks! Where is the thermal switch located, and how do I check if it's working?

On mine, it was near the radiator, but the location can be different. With those symptoms, it might be best to get it checked at a workshop to be safe.

I appreciate the advice. It was the speed sensor, like I thought. The repair cost 250€ Thanks for your help.
