Use a meter and your temp gauge to make sure the fan is receiving power when the engine exceeds normal operating temp. If it does not, check the connections and then replace the fan switch.

On the thermostat housing. It completes the fan motor's electrical connection when heated sufficiently and if it doesn't, the fan won't turn on whether it works or not.

Re: my radiator fan is not working help!
I have the same problem with my h22, the fan comes on after the car turns off, but will not turn while the key is turned. I try to hardwire the fan switch (paperclip) and the fan still didnt turn on.
Is this a sign that my sensor (fan switch) is bad? or could it be the thermostat is bad?
please help
