You might want to replace the fan switch sensor

I had the same thing happening to my 96 Accord. It turned out to be my condensor fan motor was out. I'd check both the radiator fan and condensor fans by running jumper wires from the battery to the fan to make sure they're not burned out. I just fixed mine this weekend. Running fine now. You can also test each fan by disconnecting the fan switch plug and running a jumper across the connectors of the plug. The fan should kick on if its good. Good luck.
