quite possibly, but before you start throwing parts (and money) at it, buy a genuine manual and do basic trouble shooting. You seem to be tunnel visioned about the cooling system, you maybe on the right track, but also maybe not.

Temperature switches and the thermostat can be tested in a pot of water being heated to see what temperature they open and close at

Are you gettind a alarm? If not you will want to test the over heat alarm to make sure it works.
