Why are the fan motors not working on my Nissan 370Z?
If the thermostat doesn’t open, the fan motors won’t turn on. edit: But you should be able to kick them on by turning on the AC, thereby bypassing the coolant temperature switch in the coolant system. If they don’t come on when you turn the AC on, I’d say it’s the fan motors.
What does it mean when your radiator fan is not working?

Where is the relay on a radiator fan?
The fan relay is often located in the engine bay’s fuse box, but the best way is to check your repair manual to find where it is located. Testing a 4 pin relay is often very straightforward. Remove the relay and give 12 volts to pin 30 and 85. Ground pin 86 and check if there is voltage coming out from pin 87.
Is there a way to test a radiator fan?
You can test the electrical radiator fans by taking a wire from the car battery, unplug the radiator fan connector, and put 12v+ and ground into the connector. This is the fastest and easiest way to test your radiator fans. Because the radiator fan is often drawing so much power, there is often a relay that is powering the coolant fan.

Why does the radiator fan only come on at 35 mph?
It rarely comes on at speeds over about 35 mph because at that speed enough air is forced through the radiator to keep the engine at about 198 degrees. I would start by looking for a blown 30 amp fuse under the hood.
Why does my car have a radiator fan?
You probably already know the purpose of the radiator and the cooling system in your car. When you are driving fast, the wind is passing through the radiator to cool the coolant down without issues, but when you are driving slow, there is no wind pushed through the radiator. This is why we use a radiator fan.
