Ok as the title says, my thermo fans will not kick in when the car gets hot, i have checked the main fuse and replaced the three relays in the engine compartment!

What else could it be??

Unplug the fans and check for current at the plug with the ignition on. This will tell you if the problem is the fans or the supply circuit.

I found that when mine wern;'t working and I removed the relays, one of the wire clip things that clips onto one of the prongs of the relay had sliped down. Maybe check that?
