Replaced BOTH coolant sensors (one in the rear for the gauge, one on the thermostat housing for the PCM) in an effort to get the electric fan to kick on. (Yeah, replacing the rear was not necessary; I, um, overlooked the front sensor - duh!) Found out that when the AC clutch is engaged, the fan comes on automatically and really brings the temp down fast...

Lessons learned: RTFM, search the forum, and trust your parts guy!
