Yea, there is a fan switch, probably attached to the radiator?
It failed on my old 1.2 8v, so changed the switch.
To check it, me and my dad disconnected the switch and wired the part attached to the fan directly to the battery. The fan came on, so showed it was the switch at fault.

Screws into the o/s of the radiator. Will take a few mins to fit and you'll need to top the water up after. Do it when the car is cold too!
