Default Cooling and Radiator Fans not coming on even with A/C switch to ON

I have a 1992 accord, both of my fans will not come on even with the a/c switch to on. I jumpered the fans throught the condenser relay connector ylk/blk and red, and both fans will come on when I turn the A/C switch on. So, I thinnk the fan motors are okay. I checked the no. 2 fuse and it is good. I am lost as to what is wrong?

Wow, I saw this same thread somewhere else....let's start with the easy things. Jump thermo/switch a on the t-stat, key on, do BOTH fans run?

Does the ac work?

hi poorman212 ...

it is the same question on different forums. so, how do I jumped the thermo/switch A? Do I disconnect the switch and jumped the connector? I am still not sure where switch A is located, but assume it is a 2-p connector, correct?

Thanks!

also, if both fans run. does it mean that the switch is bad?

That obviously means the fan motor itself is not working. Pick up a new fan motor from the junkyard.
