Default wiring a slim fan

Hey, i know this is not the right section but i am kinda in a bind here. I just hooked up my new manifold and I had to buy a new fan. Well now the fan will not turn on from the cars signal. If I give the fan 12v from the batery it comes on right away. Please help I NEED my car for tommorow.

Thanks,

Cut stock harness, and Blue wire goes to blue wire and black goes to black. If you need a fan I have some for sale. Check sig.

fan motors are reverse polarity...means power and ground 1 way the fan will "pull" switch them other way it will "push". It should work no matter how u have it hooked up.

Update, I hooked up the stock fan just to test and it would'nt turn on either. So, I must of blew the relay or something. the fan is setup backwards with the Ground going to the positive to make it act as a pusher.

Last night in a mad panic, I made my own relay with a switch in the car. This will do for now, next, I am going to try a relay.

Thanks for the help
