If I wire the fan directly to a 12v power tool it turns on, so its definitely putting out power already. Will the diode make the battery cease output to the fan?

Diodes only allow current to travel one way. So yes, the --battery-- (Edit: Diode) should make it so the battery won't power the fan. I'm not 100% though. I've never rigged something up with a diode. I'm more of a switch and relay enjoyer.
