Default E fan does not kick on

So I have replaced about every sensor, vacuum hose, flushed the radiator, replaced the water pump, thermostat and thermostat housing. Now, unlike before, the XJ runs hot. I have burped the system, but what I noticed is my electric fan does not turn on unless the sensor is unplugged (throws a code) or the A/C is on. Is there a way to fix this, or run a toggle switch (without getting the code)?

Possibly bad temp sensor. Check the sensor and the wiring

Sensor is good, still running down the wiring.
