Did it work reliably multiple times?

Why did you want to update in the first place? What problem were you
trying to solve?

Distributions have their own way to integrate lm-sensors in the system,
so even if you have to update, it's better to try and find a package
for your distribution.

Did you uninstall the Debian package at this point?

"make install" is sufficient, it calls target "user_install" internally
but the user doesn't have to know that.

If you had compiled other packages from source, you may have deleted
unrelated files which is definitely not a good idea.

Again this target is not documented. "make uninstall" is enough.

FWIW I can't see how anything you did may have influenced the starting
of fancontrol at boot time. lm-sensors installs to /usr/local by
default, it wouldn't have messed with your system configuration.

The way services are started at boot time is distribution specific. I
am not familiar with Debian so I can't really help there. I can only
provide generic advice:
* Check that you don't have both /etc/sensors.conf
  and /etc/sensors3.conf.
* Check that you don't have both /etc/modprobe.d/lm_sensors.conf
  and /etc/modprobe.d/lm_sensors.
* Check if the fancontrol daemon is running:
  # ps -ef | grep fancontrol
* Check the system logs for information:
  # grep fancontrol /var/log/*
* If any log file has fancontrol-related messages, open it to get all
  the details.
