You say the temp guage went up--- so how high? Fans typically don't come on until engine temp hit 227 degf-- so just sitting idling- you will wait maybe 20-30 minutes to get the fans to come on--- How do you know you have a fan problem? You say they work with a/c- so there is no fan relay or fan motor problem. You may not even have a problem at all. You maybe just don't understand your system. If temp guage goes in the red and coolant is spewing out the overflow, then I'll agree, you have a problem--- but if temp guage goes up a little higher than "normal" then you probably are not used to seeing the guage reading with no a/c on during the summer months. You went all winter with guage at 3/8 now that it is summer and you are not using the a/c the guage reads 1/2---THAT IS NO BIG DEAL- and is considered normal. system is operating as it should. So what makes you think you have a problem?
