Get a new one and it will come on fine... the easiest way to be sure that's it is to unplug the plug from the sensor and jump the connection (if it's a 2 wire)... it should make the fan come on...

If not your problem is something else...

VW's and a lot of other cars do this as well... it's a good idea... Civic's only come on after the car is off if the power is still on... the fan won't come on w/o acc. power.

If the fan can come on with the power turned off.... there should be a warning lable under the hood somewhere... generally right up front on the radiator support.


Cool. Thanks Boo! I'll get the part on my way home tonight and try it out.
