When you jumper the fan relay, the relay is taken out of the circuit. With the jumper in place, the fan should turn on - if it doesn't, then the fan or wiring is the problem.

Please take a look at the link that Rick posted for details on how to jumper around the relay: Engine Compartment Fan Manual Switch
