the Sending unit in the Zetec's are kind of wierd... MOST of them are telling you its at the top of the heat spectrum when its really closer to the middle. Next chance you get, start your car up and let it idle and wait till it goes to about the "L" on normal. and listen for the fan to kick on... if it does, then your sending unit is telling you the wrong reading in the cluster. if the temp continues to rise and the fan does not kick on... Then I would say replace your Thermostat.. its pretty easy.

Edit: does turning the AC or Defroster on turn on the fan? and does it make the temp stay down?
