1991 Vitara G16A frigid

yeah, the fan sensor needs to be close to the thermostat outlet hose point.
the 50% AF boils as 260F,
197 and 203f are so close it really does not matter. (but yes, if the main thermostat is 180F and not the 195F option then either works but not the hotter, thermostat (150f)
the 203 seems best.
most new cars in USA have 200F thermostats. and 203f sensor above is way too close for new cars, how odd they dont have more choices,. Im curious.

why drive with CEL lamp on,? its begging you to use the DLC Diagnostic jumper clip?
yes your ISC is dead, clean it.
the 1000RPM hot engine is wrong but of the fan clutch fails on a very cold day the thermostat would close and if super cold the bad fan will cause the Rad temps to fall too low.
the cardboard fix works folk near north pole or in Norway, use cardboard, I owned Sweden car, in 1965 (59' car) that had pull cord in the dash that raised a RAD window shade device.
for super cold climates , they needed 1/2 a radiator. or the thermostat goes nuts.

the reason I bring up 4mm lips is for one reason, engine swaps. or even intake manifold off a newer car has 4mm lip and must have 4mm rubber ring surround gasket. or it floats the thermostat and will never run at 180f again.
im sure you seen my FRIGID page right>? (all ways to have this happen I hope)
