Radiator Fan not running (Thermostat or Thermoswitch problem?)

Hi ulit! :) I encountered overheat last month and just few days ago I noticed nag hihigh temp na car ko. So the current issue sa car ko is I have to refill water every 3 days sa radiator and reservoir. If hindi ko marefill within 3 days, mag hihigh temp ito.

I am not sure also if nagloloko yung radiator fan kasi minsan di umaandar yung rad fan. My reservoir cap also is not securely connected to the mini hose connected to the radiator. Is it also the cause of water loss sa radiator and reservoir?

So kahapon po pinacheck ko yung car ko sa electrical tech ng cousin ko. He said the problem was the thermo switch. Nagloloko raw. I forgot to ask how sure he is if it is really the problem. So me and my cousin looked for the thermo switch on 4 auto shops but can't look for the right one. It is for Civic Lxi '96. We decided to look for it next time at banawe kasi may gagawin pa siya and it's already getting dark.

So pauwi na ako mag isa, narealize ko medjo maliwanag pa and meron pa akong ibang mga shop na alam, so when I was about to buy I asked the auto shop first if meron silang mechanic na pede magbaklas ng thermo switch so that they could check it and look for the specific part sa shop but I failed kasi umalis daw mechanic nila that time. So I walked a little bit further and looked for a mechanic sa isang auto aircon shop and the mechanic told me he could help me remove the thermoswitch so pina tanggal ko sa kanya. Then nung tinanong ko na sa auto shop eh wala pa rin daw silang mahanap na same thermo switch. Then I told the mechanic who assisted me about the issues. He told me nagrerepair din daw siya minsan ng radiator. He checked the car and he said that the radiator fan is fine kasi sobrang lakas pa ng blow nito, yung thermo switch daw okay pa kasi gumagana yung fan, then he concluded that the problem is the thermostat. He is pointing inside the two big hoses. He said, I should bring it at banawe and let them look for the thermostat and install the new one.

I really don't know kung sino paniniwalaan ko sa dalawa hehe. How will I know the problem really is the thermostat or thermoswitch?

Thanks! :)
