1996 Acura Integra Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

Engine Cooling problem
1996 Acura Integra 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 175000 miles

Does the engine coolant temperature sensor control both the condenser fan and the radiator fan? The car sat up for about 6 months, and now neither of the fans will come on. They both worked when we parked it. I was able to jump the fans directly from the battery and they both work. The fuses are fine too. The fans just won't come on. A guy at the auto parts store said that the engine coolant temperature sensor may be the problem. Can that little part be the root of the issue?
