You're welcome.

"4.1.1 Fans sometimes/always read 0!!

You may need to increase the 'fan divisor'. See doc/fan-divisors in our
package for further information."

Set divisors to 4 or even 8 and you should get the readings. This is
done by adding lines of the form "set fan1_div 4" in the "w83627thf-*"
section of /etc/sensors.conf, and running "sensors -s" to apply the
changes.
