You might have changed the wrong sensor. There are two. The cooling fan sensor will be closer to the radiator, either plugged into the radiator or the thermostat housing. One sensor is for the temp gauge and the other is for the cooling fan, good luck.

you will need to inspect all of the left side blinker bulbs one of the bulbs that is supposed to blink is bad my buddy has a caviler that had the same problem one of the bulbs ended up being bad it was the rear drivers side bulb. there is also a flasher relay locater under the dash that tends to go bad just listen for the ticking and replace the flasher the flasher costs about 8 bucks at you autopart store ask for a flasher relay. i hope this helps.

radiator caps went out a long time ago, coolant is added via the fill cap on the overflow reservoir.

You can swap coils, to see if the condition moves. You can also do this with injectors, or try to "ohm" them out and look for a different reading. I would also swap plug wires to determine if that may be the issue. A compression test may also be a good idea.

Its possible the fuse for the instument panel is blown.Look in your owners manual for fuse block location and check fuses.

easy way is one person pushes down on pedal and other bleeds out slave. Good luck

May be time for a complete tune up ... see your mechanic.

How much are you going to spend to fix two minor problems on a 500 dollar car. First you answer that question, then you look on www.youtube.com for a video of someone pulling an instrument cluster on a 91-95 Saturn. If you cannot find one then look for a repair manual on CD over on eBay for about 5 bucks. If pulling the cluster seems to be within your ability, then go looking for a used cluster at junkyards, craigslist, and ebay. Also keep your eye out for a Saturn odometer repair kit on eBay. Either you are going to buy a used cluster, repair it and install it or you are going to pull yours out fix the odometer and reinstall it. The broken odometer is a common Saturn fault and you may still find folks selling odometer repaired clusters for the early 90s Saturns on eBay.
The gas gauge is problematic in that you are going to have to drop the gas tank and replace the fuel level sender, while you are in there do the pump as well and save duplicating the labor next year.
I think there are folks out there selling the pump and sender combined for about 200 dollars.
When you have spent a lot of time and money fixing these minor problems, you will still have a 500 dollar car. I think you could buy a good later model for less money, I had 4 Saturns and I think the 99 was the best year, stay with a manual transmission.

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. This should be the 02 sensor that is in the back on the exhaust, the one that is farthest from the engine.

Are the cooling fans coming on?

I guess so, or you would have said
they weren't
