Once you've determined the fan itself is operational I'd remove the two wires from the temp switch and touch them together. If the fan operates you then know that the circuit is OK and the switch must be faulty.

If the fan does not operate then you have not proven that the switch is good but you've proven there is a fault somewhere in the circuit....most likely the relay

In any case always check the fuse first ! The #1 fuse in the headlight fuse box.

I still have the mod instructions and the wiring done in my car, but I disconnected it because I was in Tennessee and you don't need the auxiliary fan running in winter when the opposite is true.
I'd like those instructions if your willing to share.
