Default Fan Not Kicking On

What would cause my fan not to kick on. At idle or stopping at the light my temp will shoot up to like 220-226 and then go back down while driving but the fan never kicks on.

when you are at 226 and turn on the AC to High, what happens? Does the fan come on then?? You can program your computer to have fan #1 & #2 come on at diff temps with a Hypertech or LS1 Edit. before I became FI, I had my computer program to kick the fans on at 194... no matter what I did with the car, the temps never went over 194!
