Default Radiator fan or ac condensor fan not running

Hello everyone,'
I own a 1993 g300 with a little over 220,00 miles on it and recently my radiator fan and ac condensor fan doesnt work anymore. It doesnt even come on when i run the ac when it used to beforehand. Anyone know what the problem could be? relay? bad motor?

You are going to have to do some investigating. Stick a volt meter in the plug and see if it is getting a reading. If you are, its going to be a bad fan, if not, its something before the fan (fuse, or relay). Also check your fuses. They could be blown too.

Check you fuses,
You radiator fan should be connected to your Fan Clutch (unless you have modded it to have Custom Electric fans) this should always move even if it's bunk (if it is bad you wont be able to tell but your motor will overheat on you) If it is your alternate fan i have one that i know works i will sell it cheap if you want it.
I dont think it is this - check your connections and do what catfreak says get a voltage meter and check the Fuses and the Pins at the bottom where the fuse pushes into and see if your getting power.

Keep us posted on this and also let me know if you need the little fan - i removed mine because of a dual electric swap and i didnt need it

All right, i was testing the pins where the fuse pushes into under the radiatior fan relay and i couldnt get a reading so i tried to test the efi pins where the efi relay pushes into to see if i could get a reading because i knew that worked and i got a small spark when doing that and i think i shorted something cause now my car will crank but wont start. Any ideas on what i couldve possibly shorted and how to fix it?

Nevermind im a moron, just blew the 20a fuse while testing it. But is there a proper way to test these pins and relay using a voltometer?

I had a bad motor (engine compartment fan) and had to replace it. I don't remember spending too much on the fan motor.
