Hello. I have been wondering if my car listed fan works because I never hear it on. The SUV has never overheated so, I'm guessing it works, but is there a way to find out if it works or a way to test it?

Thank you

Yes, the easiest way to test the radiator fan is to start the engine up and turn on the A/C system to full cold. With the hood open, look at the radiator fan, it should turn on within 2 minutes of the A/C operation. Please let me know what happens.
