Blown fuse ... Changed .. Still not working ... Is it's the switch of a faulty fan motor ?

test whether the fan works by applying 12v direct.
Test the switch by checking its resistance cold,and then hot.
Obviously there should be a difference!

Does the fan turn freely.
obviously do this with the ignition off! Otherwise you could loose a digit or too.
when you changed the fuse has the fuse held and not blown again?
if it turns freely the fan may be ok. Unless it is an open circuit of course.
do you have a resistance meter?

Mine did this on Saturday, turned out I had a break in the coating on the wiring, and was shorting out on my induction kit. Worth tracing wires back maybe to be sure?
