Question 300Dturbo overheating at idle

My wifes car, 84' 300dt with around 200,000 miles, has just started (yesterday) to overheat badly at idle. When driving on highway the temp is around 85C - 90C with AC on, this is summer in florida so its hot out. When she stops in traffic or drive through the temp jumps to 120C quickly. I haven't looked under the hood yet but does this sound like a problem with the Aux cooling fan not kicking in? And if so, is this an easy fix.

Any help much appreciated

Thanks
