    Check to see if the plug on the fan has power..

    ALSO at the Plug on the T. housing.. You can juss unplug it and pin a Paper clib into the plug.. after that your Fan should run CONSTANT when key is on.

    Follow your Radiator hose.. you will see the HOUSING were your thermostat sits in.. there is a PLUG on it and a ground.. UNPLUG it.. then put a pin into the clip..

    whats the problem then??? if you want to see if the fan works then start the engine and wait and see if it kicks on after awhile or drive the piss out of it then leave it running til you hear it kick on......if the car isn't overheating i don't see the big deal...
