Whether the heater is on or off the fans should come on as soon as the vehicle starts.

TURN THE AIR COND ON THIS WILL ALLOW THE FAN TO COME ON,THERE ARE TWO THINGS IT COULD BE ELECTRICALLY ,UNLESS THE FAN MOTOR IS BAD .ONE IS FAN RELAY,TWO THE SENDING UNIT THIS TELLS THE RELAY THE ENGINE IS HOT ENOUGH TO FEED THE RELAY,THUS SENDING 12 VOLTS TO THE FAN.THE MOST COMMON PROBLEM WOULD BE A SENDING UNIT AND OR RELAY,TAKE A PIECE OF WIRE AND GROUND THE SENDING UNIT WITH SWITCH ON, IF THE FAN COMES ON YOU HAVE A BAD SENDING UNIT.LEAVE THE SENDING UNIT PLUGGED UP,GROUND IT BY TOUCHING THE SENDING UNIT TO A PIECE OF METAL SUCH AS A BOLT HEAD OR NEG.SIDE OF BATTERY.
