I found out that my fan isnt turning out, I checked the fuse and the relay and they are good, any common problems with them? Maybe thermostat went bad, the "maf" is showing -40 and normalish oil temp so?

fan control module, or the fan itself.... these are two problems ive had with mine. theres a recall on the fan control module though

also, the fan switch.
it is located on the drivers side of the radiator. pull the harness off the switch and use a piece of wire as a jumper on the harness itself. Make sure the key is turned on. if the fan comes on you know the fan is good.
Does the fan come on with the AC?

It's on the left side of the radiator about halfway down and has a three pin plug. You cant miss it.

Did you check the wire harness plug that plugs into the fans. if the little locking tab is broken the plug might slip loose? Like stated above, I also had to have the module replaced. If I remember correctly, the module was a dealer recall, so the dealer did not charge for the part, just labor.
