Q: Radiator fan cycles on once then never again
Hi, my radiator fan on the driver side comes on once then never again. The passenger radiator fan never comes on. Might be unrelated but I my AC compressor stopped engaging correctly, I'm curious to see if if replacing my AC high pressure switch cures my radiator fan issues. I think that they are oddly related. So weird. The radiator fan fuses look good, and I swapped the relays around. Does the 2009 Escape have a fan motor resistor? If so, can't find it.
