The fan is mercifully easy to get to, and so I would just look to see if you have power to it; bench test it and then you can decide if that's the problem. If it's not, then you have a problem with the controller(s).

If you have automatic a/c, there will be a separate fan control module powering the fan and that's all there is. If you have manual a/c, then there is both a relay and also a set of three resistors. The relay on a manual a/c car just bypasses everything so you have battery power straight to the blower.

These resistors OR the fan control module both get hot so whichever one you have will be mounted in the a/c case right next to the fan. The relay, if present, is mounted in the same area, but it doesn't have to be in the case. Just look for where the power wire to the fan leads back to.
