". . . even when I checked the continuity of the circuit . . ."

Sr. Alessandro: I just want to say one word to you. Just one word. 
Clyde: Yes, sir. 
Sr. Alessandro: Are you listening? 
Clyde: Yes, I am. 
Sr. Alessandro: Voltage Drop Test
Clyde: Exactly how do you mean?
Sr. Alessandro: there's a great future in Voltage Drop Testing.

Easy to do.  As easy as to do as continuity testing.  Plenty of YouTube's
out there show how easy it is.

Nevertheless - glad you're up and running Clyde.

Ok its done 
But here is the rest of the story
It wasn't the fans 
When I installed new fans one did not work
It was the fuse box that had burned a wire to the fan  and caused that fan
to not work, even when I checked the continuity of the circuit 
If you own a TR or a 512 TR you need to do the relay in line set up on your
fans and air-conditioner at the fuse box
The condenser fans are a 25 amp draw as well which caused the same issue 
The pin connector into the fuse box for the a/c was severely burned as well
I had severe heat damage where the  pins inserted to the fuse box and
luckily got out alive
It didn't not destroy the fuse box which in now longer available 
The fans are 25 AMP draw at start up and put an enormous load on that fuse
box with regards to he
