Radiator fan Not going on?

[sukchew at cox.net (Chuck Blue)]

  From what you described I would look for a loose connection on the 12v 
side of your switch.It should have power all of the time.It probable is just 
a loose wire.
It is getting power from the ac because when the ac is turned on the fan 
comes on at the same time.
