How to test radiator fan with battery?
heya, my radiator fan doens't come on at all. I tried jumping it with a <a style='text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 3px double;' href="http://www.serverlogic3.com/lm/rtl3.asp?si=24&k=paper%20clip" onmouseover="window.status='paper clip'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">paper clip</a> through the sensor by the intake and it doens't come on. I checked most fuses, but i'd rather just see if the fan works so i can order one if i need one. So how do i test the fan without cutting the wires that plug into the sensor so i can hook it up to a battery? what voltage battery do i need? any reccomendations? sorry im a eletrical noooob Thanks!
PS: I search! but no one explains how to test it with a battery, again electrical noob

you should be able to test it with a paper clip through the sensor when you stick a paper clip in it if your fan dosnt come on your fan is garbage....if it does come on it just your sensor

well not exactly true. if a fuse is bad it a relay it shouldn't turn on either. Imt rynig to gfind out if it just works without any relays switches etc, just power.
