Elec fan not working

My cooling fan isnt working. It overheaded tonight. What could be the prob. The fan and the relay were replaced in 98, surely they havent worn out. Could it be as simple as a fuse? Any advice will be appeciated. thanks, 89formula 305,

yeah it could be a fuse, you've not checked that? is the temp switch good? is the fan motor good? wire it direct and see if it runs?

I have a 2.8 v 6 on it you can ground the test for the computer(at the alcl) and the fan should start to run. also you should be able the jumper at the relay to get the fan to run.
