I have a 97 Pontiac Grand Am. It is a 6cly 3.1L. It has been sitting in the driveway for about 4 months and I've been starting it about every other day and letting it idle just to make sure everything is okay and for about the last week or two I noticed that the fan isn't coming on.

Everyone keeps telling me to hook up so jumper cables to the fan and just look and see if it turns on but they don't tell me how to do it.

Do I just hook the cables up to it anywhere?

Do I take it out of the car first and unhook everything and then hook up the cables?

Is there something else I can do to check and see what is wrong?

I don't have a diagnostic scanner and I can't take the car to be looked at so I need some help. Please.
