Default any ideas? 05 neon

ok i took my head to the shop and i did blow my head gasket. it did warp and they are milling it .006 the max it can go bc you can only go .008 soooo i cant afford this to happen again. I dont want it to overheat again so i have flushed and descaled my radiator checked my water pump and it looked great. replaced the thermostat and radiator/thermo cap. any other ideas on what will make it over heat?

If everything is working, waterpump, thermostat, radiator flushed good, I would make sure the cooling fans are working right.

yea the driver side fan isnt working. i dont know if its the switch went out or the fan. Im gonna run a jumper wire when i get the motor put back together to see if that is it. I was debating replacing the radiator but i dont have the 200 but i also dont have the 300+ for a new head either lol so im just lost i hope its just the switch on the fan if so its a easy fix i will just run the jumper till i can replace it.
