Default High temp fan?

A little help please, I've noticed that my high temp fan won't come on. I've checked the fuses under the hood and they seem to be fine, are there any other fuses or switches I'm not aware of inside the car or underneath the hood? Thanks for your input in advance. L8R ZFLASH

D*mn, I just sent you some $$$ for ST. JUDES, now I have this. What I did was installed Sac City's remote fan switch and this is when I found out it wasn't working. I thought it was just these H-town,TX, temps raising my temps. Well I hope to figure this out, thanks guys!! L8R ZFLASH

Did you turn on the AC and see if both fans are working? In normal mode I believe the 2nd fan won't come on till 230.

I was waiting on you Mr. Bill! The remote fan kit I installed is intended to have them come when I use the remote, that way it comes on without hitting those temps. The car doesn't have to be on to test this, so I guess I need to run the a/c and get to temp and see if they come on. Anyway thanks for your help as always, while I have you, my horn doesn't work anymore. I had an in dash radar defuser/detector installed wondering if it could have been unplugged from inside the dash?

Both fans will always run together. They are not commanded individually and yes, three relays control them. When they are supposed to run, always both.
