Red face Fans not coming on.. Can someone help "Im a rookie here"

Ive got a 97 T/A and I'm in love with it-

My cooling fans are not coming on, Ive switched relays, and checked fuses.
with out a test light I know both fans could be burnt out (but I think its highly un likley) when I turn on the A/C.... No fans.

Am I missing something?

Thanks

Default

With the car OFF, try to manually spin fan blades. This will indicate if they are seized.

I had a 01' Cavalier that had the same symptoms and, the fan motor was bound up. I pulled the fan motor and took it apart. Cleaned it, lubed it, and it worked fine.

I would defiantly get a multi-meter and go through the wiring. You need to see if power is getting to motors. Let me know how it goes.
