Yeah Buddy, 108 here next to San Jose yesterday and possibly a bit more today.
Two testy bits.
1. Unplug the connector from the bottom of the left radiator and with ignition turned to On, jump the two connectors in the wiring harness. Fans should do the whirly-gig jug.
2. Just start the engine and let it idle while you sit idly by and watch the temperature hinting bit on the video display. When the fourth bar comes on or shortly thereafter (facetious big word thrown in there) the fans should both start spinulizing.
Number 1 will not test the temperature switch function, just the fan operation.
Good luck.
