Check each of the three relays (identified on the cover) in the relay box in the engine compartment. Unplug each relay. The base should have plug-ins arranged something like this (ignore the periods; they're the only way I could add spacing):

..... ---- (2)

---(3) ........ | (5)

..... ---- (1)

While using jumper wires to connect fused battery voltage to terminal 2 and to ground terminal 1, you should have continuity between terminals 3 and 5. If the relays are OK, check the fan motor. Unplug it and connect jumper wires with fused battery voltage to terminal 2 and ground terminal 1. Looking at the oval shaped female plug, if the locking tab is at the top, terminal 1 is upper right, 2 is upper left.
