Here is the cooling fan wiring diagram so you can see how the system works. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Yes, it's only one fan. I'm sorry i didn't mention it's a new fan. but i unplugged it and tried reconnecting the relay without the fan and it still clicks as if it's getting tripped, connected an ohm meter to check volts and still has no power to the fan plug. only shows 12.7 volts if i jump the relay. Is there a way to check the fan? it works with battery terminals.as i said it's a brand-new fan but maybe defective somehow.

If the fan works when connected to the battery it might be okay or it works but draws too many amps and is defective. How big of spark does it make when connected? If it is excessive the fan motor is no good. You can see the wiring to the fan is straightforward, check out the wiring diagrams above. You can run a new power wire from the Lt/Grn wire from the PDC in case it is pinched somewhere. Let me know how it goes.
