Cat C13 overheating

Yahoo Message Number: 113179
We had a problem with the engine overheating (Coolant 220 degrees) on a cool (50 degree) evening on flat ground. It seems that the fan does not turn on. It never has a problem during the day nor when it's warm out. My son looked at the schematic book, found the fan controller and assumed was that the ambient temperature caused the problem. Cut the wires to the air intake temp sensor and our problem went away.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Assuming the air temp sensor has gone bad. Thanks!
