Hi,

This vehicle isn't offered in the US, so my technical information is very limited. However, I will try my best to help.

First, most vehicles will have a designated fuse for the fan motor and one or more fan relays. Have you checked fuses and relays? Here are a couple of links you may find helpful:

Also, if the fuses and relays check good, see if the fan turns on if you run power directly to it.

Let me know what you find.
