Unfortunately the "temp indicator" on the dash is useless to monitor the temp. did you use an actual method like OBC hidden menu? The mornonic dash indicator shows everything perfect from about 65 to 110C. I drove my car for months with a stick open thermostat because of the asinine design

But to answer your question as long as your electric fan is operational it's fine to run the car without the water pump fan in the winter months. I'm thinking of taking mine off vs the other typical Wisconsin option of block the radiator with cardboard.
