I have a 4.9 engine with 150,000 miles. The cooling fan will not come on. I have changed the sensor but it still will not come on. What should I do?

Hello,

There are three cooling fan relays and a 50 amp maxi fuse that needs to be checked. Here is a guide to help you do some testing with a wiring diagram so you can see how the system works:
