Bridge connections on rad fan switch, see it if comes on. if it does... then it's either the switch itself is faulty, or you're not flowing hot water through the radiator (low coolant, blockage, etc).

Check the coolant level, bleed any excess air out, check the thermostat inside the top rad hose opens and that your water pump is flowing water back to the expansion tank.

Thats normal. I'd make sure the system is topped up and re-bleed it via the 2 bleed screws. You can check the switched as mentioned above. :)
