Problem resolved. the RAD FAN relay was bad, I fixed the relay and both fans are working again.
I called the dealer to get a price but they couldn't find on their database very weird, anyways for those whose driver (left) side fan not working should replace the 40 amps small fuse in the battery compartment. If anybody needs a high quality cooling fan assembly, shroud, motors and blades I can get it for 175$ brand new with 1 year warranty.

My 04 only has 64k miles and I haven't really paid attention about the fans. After reading this post, i'll check both fans tomorrow and give dealership a call. Does your temp gauge needle still stay in between hot and cold even with only one fan working, MJ-G35? I'm kinda worry about mine now..

Ok, It is time for me to post that my car is overheating.

I was sitting in the traffic today and decided to kick my A/C on. When I did that, I've noticed that my temperature started to rise. I was almost to H on a thermal gauge. Turned A/C off and got moving. Temperature dropped to 3/4.

Got home, decided to see if my fans are working. AND my fans are not kicking in, no matter whether I turn A/C or heat on a full blast. They fans use to work when I was putting my car together. But now, they don't even move

My thermal gauge is staying 3/4 high. I know it is not suppose to be this high. Not even suppose to be 1/2. I've checked, and there is no bubble in the radiator.

Checked my fuses and they are functioning!

Help!

You need new fans. Call your dealer and ask them about this. This is a known problem and your dealer may replace the fans for free even though you're out of warranty.
There might be even a recall. The fan motors are shot.
If they refuse to, let me know. I can get you an aftermarket cooling fan

Twin fans not operational on my 2005, Sedan

I had a problem with my G getting a little warmer than I wanted last summer. the needle never went into the red, but very close. I took it to the dealer, and was informed that there had been a recall on the fans. The issue was that the thermostat in the fans, which communicated to the ECU were malfunctioning causing the issue. The dealer I use replaced the fans for free, due to the recall. My first thought was it was a bad T-stat also. Not the case this time.
PS. This will also be a good time for the dealer to give the machine a Physical exam, less the finger test =)

I wouldn't mind taking it to the deal to find out if fans are burned, but the problem is that I didn't buy the car from a dealer. Does that make a difference?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Just came back from a dealer. They ran my VIN to see if there is an extended warranty on 06 Coupe's, but there was nothing that he could find in their system. Diagnostic is $105 there, whether they find anything or not.
Got home, decided to turn my A/C on one more time to see if fans will kick in. After about 20 sec of A/C being full blast, Right fan started to work,but was rotating very weakly. Must I mention, that my thermo gauge is ALWAYS 3/4 onto the H. This is not normal right?
