Those little "fuses" are relays. One is for the fan, you will see the wires going to the fan motor.

You could try jumping the wires, but that could mess up the relay. It is best to check to see if any of have voltage. One of the wires goes back to the ECU, very low voltage, so jumping that one with 12V would be a disaster.

I suspect that something is unplugged. Be careful, the fan could nick your fingers!

Another thing to try: turn the AC on. The engine fan is also supposed to turn on then.
