    OK sounds like you have a bad cooling fan relay. At you furnace. Does your furnace have a control board in the blower compartment?

    OK sounds like it is wired right. I think the problem is going to be at your furnace

    The you either have a bad fan relay at your furnace. Or the green wire is broke or not touching at the t-stat. I would check the green wire at the stat first
