They work using coolant temperature sensors. When the temperature in the coolant reaches the maximum temperature set by the computer, the sensor sends a signal to the fan relay switch to turn the fan(s) on. With the vehicle parked and running, turn the a/c on and, probably, one of the fans will start running. As long as the gauge continues to read the temperature at a normal point, you do not have to worry about anything.
