You really need to get the manual and follow it's diagnosis process. There is a temp sensor, a temp control unit, and a relay and circuit breaker for the fan. If neither the fan nor the light come on it could be the unit or the sensor, but the light is meant to come on when you use the electric start as a check, so follow the diagnosis process to make sure you find the problem

You just need to loosen the clutch adjusting nut enough that it's not locking the bolt(about a half a turn), then hold it while you turn the screw/bolt, then lock the bolt/screw up again without letting the bolt/screw turn. When the clutch wears the free play reduces and so you are backing the adjuster a small distance away from the pushrod(20) in the diagram. Parts 19 and 21 in the second photo push the pushrod.

You can heat the sensor with a heat gun and see if the fan and light come on, to do this remove the sensor, there are ohm ratings that you can check with a meter, your manual should tell you the correct specs.

That's the manual I need. Now I can feel comfortable with working on it. The first order of business is the rear shaft boot replacement. Then some normal maintenance, like fluid and filter changes. Thanks again for your help. Happy trails.

Good you got it up and driving, keeping my fingers crossed its going to come around, Mech gave you a very good detailed description of what to do, dont have anything to add to that. Good luck!
