No mileage?? If high check wear out parts,  faulty thermostat ,fan switch, fan, water pump, radiator failing interior restricted. Lot of options. Also blown head gasket or worse.


fans are working and I replaced the thermostat and cleaned out the radiator how can i tell if it’s the water pump

how can i tell if it’s the water pump 


Use another new thermostat.
Do you have heat in the cabin?
