re: fans not kicking on
not sure on the heater problem, but for your fans it kind of sounds like you've used the wrong sending unit. is your sending unit supposed to be used with a gauge? if so, it will act as a resistor and only supply so much power to a gauge, to indicate temp. what you need is a temp sensor that turns on at a certain temperature. then when the engine gets hot the unit will switch and send power to the fans. hope this helps.

re: fans not kicking on
Have you checked your fan relays. Some cars use a 2 speed fan. The computer will call for low speed first, then if the car continues to over-heat the computer will call for the hi speed. The A/C always gets hi speed. Check for 2 fan relays under the hood.
