According to my rather vague diagram the cooling fan has its own 30A fuse in the main block and is active at all times but no number is given. There is usually a diagram on the box cover but if not if you think the fuse has failed check them all with a test light, (repeat - use a 2W test light) if you're right than one should not be working. I'm not sure about the Mazda fan motor but in general, blown cooling and fuel pump fuses can indicate a failed motor. When fan motors seize from lack of use they draw excessive current which ultimately blows the fuse and melts the brush housing needing a new motor. Hot wire the motor to check.


Hope this helps
