Default radiator fan not working after b18 swap

i let the car run for about 10 mins & drove it around & the fan never came on, the hoses and everything are hot , the temp gauge is at normal, its a slim fan that worked great before the swap ,everything is plugged up ,fuses are good, could i possibly have two plugs backwards, one for engine coolant temp & the other for the fan switch. can any body tell me what color the 2 wires are for those connectors, pics would be great. 97 civic ex with jdm b18 gsr swap

The fan switch has a Grn wire and a Blk wire. Jump the 2P connector to see if the fan now runs continuously with key in ON(II). If so, then replace the switch.

That's nice of you to say, but one person does not make a forum. There's a lot of very knowledgeable people here that I continue to learn from.
