A/C Electric Condenser Fan Troubleshooting

I noticed my electric fan that's mounted on the A/C condenser doesn't ever seem to turn on. I know it should come on with the AC. Should it come on every time the clutch engages?

Thanks,
DrA>

Bumping this question.

I have discovered there isn't any mention of the A/C condenser fan in either the Haynes manual I have or the FSM. Its stock and sits right in front of the condenser.

Any info out there?

Thanks,
DrA>

Shoot, let me bump this again here. I don't have a clue about it, nor can I find anything anywhere.

Somebody does, right?

What kinda rig ya got? Generally, if equipped w/ an electric fan it should come on when a/c clutch is engaged. (fan gets pwr from a relay) I'd say check and see if yer gettin pwr to the motor (fan) if not, relay might be toast. If there is pwr @ the motor you can check to see if it is bad by ohming out the motor winding w/ an ohm meter to see if there is any resistance. Does the motor spin freely? Hope this helps.
