There is a fuse, but look at the relay first, and check for power there. If the relay is getting power on the secondary, then you know the fuse has to be good. Then try shunting the relay socket.
That should make the fan go on.
If it has power but goes not go on then, it is probably the fan motor. Check it for current with a test light.
If it does go on when you jump it, then it is probably the radiator temperature switch, which is supposed to control the relay, or the relay itself, or possibly the wire to the temp switch from the ignition.

    There would be no need for a clutch on an electric fan blade, so indeed I think you are right that the blade is probably stripped on the shaft. If there is a nut in the center, you could try tightening it. But the fan may come attached to the motor. See how they sell it.

Location of radiator fan fuse or fuse link ? Fan doesn't work.

Both should be a fuse under the hood, or under the dash, if there is a fuse link, it will be along the hot side of the wiring on the fan leading into source of power.

Radiator fan won't turn on at all

on the 92 civic you have 2 sensors for the coolant, one is a coolant fan switch and the other is a temp sensor. the fan switch tells the computer to turn on the fans at a certian temp. i would suggest replacing the fan switch which is located on the thermostat housing. if that doent work it could be the relay. I have owned my 92 civic hatch for 10 yrs and have done all the work to it myself. Also a mechanic by trade. Hope this will help you out

1993plymouth acclaim radiator fan does not turn onwhen engine gets hot

Your 93 should have a fuse block under the hood with fan relays in it. The location of these should be indicated on the underside of the cover. Find the fan relay, remove it and check the four terminals with a grounded test light. With the key off, you should have power to one terminal. With the ignition on, you should have power to two terminals. With the key off, provided you have power to one terminal, take a jumper wire and insert it into the hot terminal, and insert the other end momentarily into the terminal exactly opposite. One of these terminals will not have the same orientation as all the rest. If the fan does not start to run, replace the fan. If you do not have power at any of these terminals, check the maxi-fuses in this same fuse box. If the fan does run, suspect your coolant temp sensor. You can test this by unplugging this sensor while the ignition is on. The fans should come on.

1990 plymouth acclaim. radiator fan does not work. Radiator is holding fluid and pressure. runs fine at 55 mph because the air cools the engine> can not stop and go drive in city. Could this be a bad...

You can unplug the fan & put battery voltage to it

It is a dc motor & will run either direction depending
on how you hook it up

If it works then look on the radiator tank near the bottom
for a fan switch,will have a couple wires,will have to drain
coolant to remove

If you find one you can put in a pot on the stove & heat it up
in water & use your meter to check for it to close or come on

Cant find fan relay on 92 olds cutlass ceira 3.3

Hi!!
Check the Relay Pack located to the left of the radiator (standing in front of the engine) there are 3 relays together, the one closest to the radiator, is the Cooling Fan Relay.
Good Luck!! A HELPFUL - 4 THUMBS - rating for this solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for using FixYa!!
