Default No Fan...Please, any ideas?

FOUND SOURCE OF PROBLEM...MOVING TO QUESTION TO GENERAL SECTION

O.K, Here is what I have done...complete and up to date...
I bought a 1997 XJ6, previous owner said fan just stopped blowing
one day. I initially replaced the blower resistor with a used one.
Then I checked both fans. (both work) then I replaced the resisitor
with a brand new one. I have checked all the fuses. I tried a fan
control panel from another car. Still no fans.
Other websites and repair manuals say there is a blue fan relay on
pass. side. I can not find it. All interior relays are black, some with a very dark purple stripe.
Have looked in both panels under rear seat. And looked all around
passenger front area. This is a LHD car.
Thanks

This is from the JTIS manual.

Well, just looked...there is a large light brown relay that is not on the diagram. It is in the middle of that group of black ones in the heel board.
Could something be keeping power going to those four relays? Surely not all 4 are blown. There are no other electrical issues with the car. And all fuses are good.

OK, maybe I should be able to figure this out from the post, but what fan are we talking about? I assume you are referring to the AC fan, since the cooling fans have no resistors. Am I right?

Have you tried the self test diagnostic procedures? It involves some button combinations and is described in the archives. Fortunately for me, I have hasd no experience needing to do troubleshooting on my X-300!

Error Codes 11 - 23 - 32
All Relays are good....Is there a way to test the resistor? Maybe I have bought 2 bad ones in a row?
