First, DO NOT tape the "cage" if it is still intact, you can try special glues that are sold in auto body supply houses. You don't want the thing coming apart, at night, 100 miles from help.
Try junk yards, they usually sell the fan shrouds fairly cheap, that failing try after market, I've bought complete fan assy. for around a $100, most a little more.
As to testing, you can - WITH CARE- connect temporary wiring using crimp connectors. The fan will have a plug close to it, you can almost always make a connection there.
The first tip will work if you have a single fan setup.

SOURCE: won't start, battery good

I understand how you feel about underhood tasks. The termnial connections were the easiest for me to start with. I suggest you have a tech check thie wiring on this vehicle. You obviously have a bad ground wire that will need to be traced to find a solution.

Testimonial: "So far, everyone has been right and I was wrong.Had a tech check battery.it was low. changed it out, time will tell. Thanks to all"

SOURCE: car runs hot when driven but fine while idling. Replaced radiator, hoses, thermostat

You would probably be better off replacing the belt and pump again since the labor would be next to nothing.
I would want to test the cooling system for exhaust gas and try to verify the head gasket is actually leaking next.
Are you loosing coolant into the cylinders ? There may be something else causing the engine to run hot such as exhaust problems.

Water in my radiator is flowing wrong direction when i turn the engine over....problem started just after the engine very rapidly overheated.....no heat to inside of cab also....the coolant will actually...

First thing is first what year make and model of vehicle is it. It actually sounds like you may have more then one problem. Next thing is are you using the correct mix ratio and type of coolant. Basically the orange/red. I see you say the radiator water, should be coolant correct? Is it still over heating are your fans coming on. Is the coolant gauge appear to warm up and stay midrange? Is your coolant reservoir cap busted? Are your lines or fittings dry rotted or leaking? Does it have a radiator precooler? Is it over serviced? Is your thermostat in stalled correctly ands it working right? Is your "water pump" leaking?

I hit a deer this morning and manage to bust somthing that drained all my oil. what could be broken?

The deer probably damaged your oil filter, which is usually located in the front part of the engine, just behind the radiator. Good luck with that.

Check engine light on, cruise light flashing

As far as the cruise control light flashing, the light is flashing to tell you that the cruise has been disabled. The vehicle's computer will disable the cruise control from working when certain trouble codes are set in the PCM (main computer), which the computer thinks may cause harm with the cruise engaged.
The check engine light may not be connected to the deer hit. I have seen many times when something like this is a coincidence. That being said, the jarring from the deer hit may have caused a vacuum leak. Or perhaps there is more damage than you might think under the hood.

On the components, you might try a separate ground. See if that helps? Check the battery negative connections. I've seen this even on newer vehicle where instrument cluster or whatever would dim a little when you turn on headlamps. I think it's a ground issue? Just my opinion.
On any component that doesn't work, check voltage and ground, you could try a redundant ground.
