Unhappy 01 stratus r/t 3.0 fans will only kick on once temp. Has reached 3/4

Hello I need help with this car I purchased for my fiance. It is a 01 stratus r/t 3.0 coupe. I purchased thinking I got it for a good deal. But it was too good to be true. There is something wrong with the cooling system. The car runs great untill it idils at a light or parked for a while. The cars fans will not kick on unless I turn on the a/c or the car goes to 3/4 temp. Then the fans will kick on. Now the normal temp it should stay at is a little under half. So far I have replaced the radiator, thermostat, and coolant temp sensor, and a radiator system flush. I do not belive its either a relay or fuse because the fans kick on. And I can unplug the temp sensor and the fans will kick on full blast. Im running out of options just want this car to work properly. Right now I have the sensor unpluged so the fans stay running so my fiance can still use as needed. If anyone can help me out I would grately appreciate it. Thank you. . . .

I did all of that including the fuse and the relay. My fan is not working at all. Did you ever get yours fixed?
