First get an idiot light(4.99) most stores. Pointy thing on one end - wire and alligator clip on the other - little light bulb in the middle. Test it first with pointy thing on one battery terminal and alligator clip on the other. The light should go on. look at the radiator from the drivers side of the car next to the engine. On the far left side of the radiator about 3/4 s of the way up are 2 wires attached to a socket that is screwed into the radiator. Unplug them both. Then you should be able to pull the little plastic caps back to where you can touch them together. Does the fan come on? If so you have a bad switch(socket thing). If it doesn't come on tape the clips together. Then go over by the battery and look at the black rubber wiring sheath that comes out of the back of the fan. Follow it to the grey connector and unplug it. Attach the idiot light alligator clip to the negative(-) pole of the battery and touch the pointy thing to both of the poles. Did either light up(remember to check the connector from the wiring harness not the fan). If either pole lights up you probably have a bad fan. You can check the ground by hooking up the alligator clip to the positive(+) side of the battery and checking both poles also. One should light up also. If you are mechanically inclined remove the ran and email me and I will tell you how to fix the brushes. 1 minute repair.
