radiator fan escort 1.3 m reg?

the radiator fan does not come on when engine hot.put new sender in by thermstate housing.checked wiring

Check coolant levels first.
The fan switch is the one on top of the thermostat housing. The smaller one screwed straight into the head is for the temp guage.
To test the fan- join the two terminals together with a piece of wire, in the plug on the fan switch. Ignition on and the fan should run. If it does then you may need a new switch or it may be that the engine isn't getting hot enough to make it come on. At this time of year the fan won't come on very often.

is fuse ok, think its next to battery. if you connect wires of switch together does fan run? if fan dosent run and fuse ok it could be relay which i think is behind plastic panel behind battery.
