Yes, first off many people including me have said their temp. gauge doesnt read correctly, mine hasnt read correctly in who knows how long I got the car at 47k and it didnt then.
Also the fan doesnt come on until the car reaches a certain temp.
You need to find out what your ECT is saying, if your ECT isnt reading the temp. correctly your fan will not come on, for example if your ECT just said 150 degress, and neevr got to like 180 or 190 whenever the fan kicks in then it wouldnt come on.
Also the fan automatically comes on when the A/C is set to high position.

Hope that helps.
