If the radiator fan in your Skoda Fabia suddenly stops working, the first thing to do is check the status of the relevant fuses, whose location is indicated in this video. As shown, there are two fuses located in the box on the positive terminal of the battery, identifiable by its red colour.

They are labelled F3 and F6, with ratings of 40A and 50A respectively. If faulty, ensure you use replacements with equivalent specifications and always work with the vehicle turned off to avoid damaging connected devices.
