HI - it sounds as if you might have a computer probl.
I would put it on a computer to see what codes come up , it could be a relay or a sensor . it might be a simple thing that needs to be replaced.
as far as the overheating , I would flush the system and do a rad. test. to look for any leaks.but you should check the hoses and look for any other troubles it could have . and check the rad. cap.
