Condenser Fan Not Engaging

[Chrispy0530]

I just recently added my condenser fan back on. Here is the problem.

I have ECMlink set to run the fans all the time, so when I start the car, they both turn on. Now, when I turn on the A/C ( A/C Compressor turns on ) the fan stops spinning. And after a while, it will eventually start a burning smell coming from the fan itself.

Can't figure out what's going on. Wire harness is not spliced or anything, plugged in directly with factory plugs, and the condenser fan is OEM. Works only when the A/C is turned off. Turn the A/C on, blades doesn't move and starts cooking itself from the smell of it.

What happens when you uncheck running the fans full time and then turn on the A/C?

Did you check how power and ground change at the fan with ac off, and with it on?

Replaced the OEM fan with an OE fan. Problem resolved. Seems like whenever the OEM fan tried to kick into high speed (When A/C was turned on), something wasn't allowing it to engage, thus the motor heating up and almost frying itself.

Glad you got it resolved. Sent you a PM.
