Issue: Fan only comes on when AC is pushed

Ran the car to temp where guage was past half way, but fans never turn on based on temperature. Need some advise on what the current issue is. is it the resistor? Because it isnt the fuses, fan (works at both speeds), nor the relays. Thanks!
The fan mounted resistor is open.
Before I bought a new fan, I ended up connecting the two wires that go to the fan resistor. This made the fan turn ON when ac is off but at a higher speed. I did not have any slow speed on the fan, but I was more confident the car will not overheat.
Then I finally bought a new fan and planned on retrofitting another resistor but never got around it.
