1994 Ford Tempo mileage: 50,000. Noted in past few days that my engine is over heating. I have check radiator fluid and is ok. Also, check thermostat and believe it is ok. What else could be causing problem, could it be fan motor switch and if it is how can I check it?

Checking the fan motor switch is a relatively easy test. With the hood open, let the car idle and the radiator fan should cycle on and off as the car heats up if the switch is okay.
