Radiator Fan Problem

i have a 1999 S40 1.8se gdi ,developed a radiator fan problem
i recently had my ambient temperature sensor replaced, was workin fine for a few days but 2day as i was just about to set out for a long haul journey, i noticed the ambient temperature rising which did not seem possible becos it was freezin outside, so i pulled over and checked the sensor but it was in the correct position,however the wire was out of place so i put that back in place. i carried on driving a few miles but the temp continued to rise so i pulled over and checked it again,,
it is at this point i noticed the radiator fan was not workin and the radiator was cold,, i touched the hose leading into the radiator and it was quite hot but the hose leadin out the radiator was cold..
i checked the radiator fan fuse and it is fine, but the fan does not come on, left the car running for about 45 mins and wathced 2 see if the fan comes on but it didnt...
wondering if anyone can help....
