Car started to over year so I replaced the cooling assembly with a new one but fan only comes on when I use the A/C. I also replaced the three relays and still the same issue. The fans used to come on every 10-15 seconds now nothing not even when the motor warms up.
Do you
have the same problem?

Some makes and models, the fan will come on and run if you unplug the coolant temperature sensor. I'd take a look at that sensor. Any applicable trouble codes?
