The way to find out ifthe fan worksis to block the radiator off with a sheet of cardboard. That will make it heat up very quickly and you should hear and see the fan kick in. It may still bea fuse or relayissue if it doesn't kick-in and I would start there since they are cheaper to replace then the fan. The Relay should be the the Power Distribution Box (Black Box) under the hood drivers side as may the fuse if there is not one under the dash inside the car. Hope This Helps.

Why do you use mercury in thermometers if it is not a good conductor of heat?
- mercury is a liquid metal - cooling and heating are easy reversible - cooling and heating are rapid - the relation between the temperature and the thermal expansion of mercury is linear
Heating and Cooling Tips?
The majority of your home's energy bill each month is due to heating and cooling your home. You can do a lot to reduce these costs by doing a few simple things. Set your thermostat 1-2 degrees higher or lower depending on if your are heating or cooling. You will not notice much of a difference in temperature, but your utility bill will.
