How do I fix my overheating Ford Fiesta?

I have had the water pump and thermostat in my 2002 Ford Fiesta replaced, but the water is over heating and coming out of the tank on top of the engine.

Could be that the radiator fan temp sensor/sender switch is stuck and not switching on the fan. Replace it.
