make sure all the wires are connected and none are frayed, touching metal or are just cut period. A good way to test it would be to connect the positive and the negative to the battery and see if you are getting power.

I thought the same thing with mine so I called asked the dealership, the fan only comes on after the engine temp reaches a high operating tempratue.
If you want to test let the car idle for about 7 minutes and watch the fan. It only turns on when its needed to bring the temp down.
hope this helps.

The fan should turm on a little at 172 full at 194f. To check if your fan switch work's uplug it for the water pump assmbley and stick a paper in the hole(2) just bend the paper clip into a U with the two point going into the hole,with that the fan should turn on. If not then check the fuse in the ECU.

there are two fans underneath the hood. Turn on the A/C for a while until the motor gets reaaaalll hot. That should tell you if its working or not.
