Radiator fan not coming on. Already replaced the fan motor, broken thermostat, relay in fuse box under hood, fuses in fuse box under hood. Is it the fuse links and where are they? Thanks.

BTW this is a 95 Mercury Tracer Trio Manual Trans 1.9, the exact same thing as a 1.9 escort

Actually I found the problem with the fan not coming on. There are two more seriously hidden relays. Unbolt the air filter housing (12mm socket, 3 bolts). Move that out of the way and near the fender there is a rectangular shaped object with one 10mm bolt holding it on. Its there hiding. Unbolt it, its a rubber boot on it covering the last two relays. Mine were melted. Advanced was gonna special order one that they could have gotten for $70 but not the other. Forget that. I went to the ford dealership and ordered the right ones, both for less than $70. The problem is one of the wiring harnesses melted, but I''ll get around that. Also you can used non OEM relays if you feel up to it. This link will tell you how to do it: http://www.feoa.net/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=465236
