You might want to try checking the BPC valve (I believe that's what it's called). It is mounted on a small bracket on the radiator and has three hoses and a wire connector going to it. Try swapping it with a good one.
If that happens to be the problem, sometimes they can be repaired. If you're certain that it is bad and you're going to throw it away anyway, try spraying some WD-40 down each of the hose connectors on the valve itself, then tap the unit with some force. There's a metal slide piece inside that often gets bound up. If fixed mine this way and it has worked great ever since.
