If you're checking the fan ONLY, just turn on the a/c.  At idle, the fan comes on,
since the car is below the speed where the computer turns it on, somewhere around 35
or 40 mph.  If you're checking the computer for turning it on when the proper temp
is reached, you have to go farther.

But to just check the fan, turn on the a/c.
