no the aux fan should kick in at a bit over 100 deg C ..whether the a/c is on or not.. at least it does with my car. your idle temp is way too high..
you need to diagnose your system.
it could be your t-stat or radiator. are they original?
FWIW i have the original radiator still in my car and temps in summer run between the 80 and 100 deg C mark consistantly. as said the aux fan kicks on above 100C and brings the temp down quick.
