Did you jump the relay to see if fan come on?
To jump....
Using test light find all power sockets make note of them. Then take a jumper wire stick in one of the power sockets then stick the other end of jumper in the sockets that are not powered. If fan is good should turn on.
If have doubts run wires straight from battery to fan. If still doesn't turn on most likely you have a bad fan.
