check the fuses. Connect the fan directly connected to battery and see if it turns ON.

He already said it tuns with the connector jumpered (that what I translated from the broken English). Wiring it directly to the battery won't tell him anything new. Did you try the simple things like replacing the radiator cap or thermostat? Did it overheat?

Wire up and mount a switch to turn it on and off manually. You prob also got a leak in a hose some where.

i would wire it manually but my family use it so i don't want to get it overheat. im just wondering what wrong with it or is there no solution at all to fix this? i thought replacing the fan switch help but it still the same thing. i pull out the relay when i put the paperclip on the pin and it turn off when i take the relay out so yeah im running out of idea.
