Default both cooling fans are not working, is it the norm?

When my AC is on, the fan on the right is not functioning, only the one on the left. Is this the norm ? Does the other fan turn on when it reaches a certain temp? If its broken, is it easy to replace? Thanks for your help.

Mine turn on only after it gets to a certain temp... But my Eclipse GS that i had, rarely turned on... Is your car overheating a lot?

Generally one is set for the AC, turn the Air on and see if they both kick on...after its hot, of course.

If your compressor wasn't working, you wouldn't get cold air.
As for the fan, it's only a 12v fan. Check it with a 9volt battery by connecting one to the plug? If it turns the fan, chance are, your motor is not reaching temps to turn on or you a/c temp switch is bad.

just test it by supplying it with 12v and a neutral.

actually if you know any vechles with elec fans when the ac on both fans should come on if the freon is low the ac will not work and the condensor fan will not come on .just the cooling fan will come on when the temp reaches 212.
