do anyone know how to fix a thermostat?

Answer 1

the only way to fix a thermostat is to replace it.

Answer 2

I just changed one in my car about 3 weeks ago it was pretty simple. Like everyone else has said it is easier to buy a new one, once a thermostat is dead it is dead. I got a new one at Kragen and it cost about 10 bucks and it took about an hour to replace. I had the help of a repair manual, very nice, very easy to use. I use a free online help manual.
