Default Help- Electric Fans Not Working

My car was hit hard and low under the front. I have the front end apart. No front bumper, lights, air pump in right now. I just put in a new radiator and a set of used cooling fans. All the wires are still there so I just pluged in the 2 plugs for the fans and filled the radiator. I started the car up and let the temp come up. It went up to 220 NO fans came on. No codes came up? Which fan is supposed to turn on the d/s or p/s? Any help is appreciated?

turn on the a/c and see if they run. I believe the first fan comes on at 232 with a/c off.

Did a search and fans kick in at 226F. I ran the car to about 225-230 and they both kicked in. Thanks all.
