still over heating

Ok so for the last two weekend i've been trying to get my fan working right

as it sits now the fan will spins freely by hand but nothing other wise
I swapped out the fusible link off to the pass side of the fan
this gave me power to the back relay on the driver's side
but i'm still not getting any power to the temp sensor under the throttle body

I would love to get this working properly
what am i missing or what should i try next?????

Have you ran a direct test line to the battery to make sure the motor isn't bad. I swapped mines out about a month ago same issues.

Technically you should, just an idea I threw out there b/c that was my issue. I had replaced the fuse on the firwall to the a/c control but that wasn't my issue. So I ran a direct hot wire to the fan and still nothing. Replaced the motor and been good ever since.
