Default electric fans not working

Sorry that I have to (again) show my ignorance, regarding my own car, but I was hoping somebody could point me in the right direction. When taking my car out recently, I headed into our downtown area, with slow traffic. My temperature gauge started climbing into uncomfortable territory, and I checked to be sure my front-mounted electric fans were spinning, and they were not. Once the car was out of traffic and started getting some air through the radiator, the temps dropped, but until I figure out my fan problem, I am limited to driving only at speeds above 10 mph.

My car is a CSX4000 series (#4145). I would imagine that the front twin fans are all wired pretty much the same on these. Are they on a temperature switch? I couldn't find one, but wasn't sure where all to check. I found a wire coming from the harness on the passenger-side fan wiring, which was grounded to the frame and was loose, but fixing that didn't solve anything. I don't see any blown fuses.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any help.
