I have noticed that my fans are not coming on causing my temp to rise. I checked all the fuses and they are okay. I do not have any schematics or block duagrams on the car as I purched it used. Is there a relay I can check and where might it be located?

Thank you for sending me the schematic for my fan problem. However, the picture was so small , no matter what software I used to enhance
it did not work! I did find a 60 amp fuse under the steering column and it checked out okay. Is there any relay that you think maybe bad and what might its location be!

Thanks for any help you can offer me!
