because a thermo fan is supposed to only turn on once the engine has reached a certain temperature (eg 1/2 way on the temp guage) to cool it down... its not button operated ALTHOUGH you can edit it to be so..

It works like this with standard air-con. I believe that climate control will control it differently.

The interior fan also has to be turned on for the AC to operate, which should start your cooling fan.

the engine fan cuts in at 3/4 but when i hit the a/c button on the climate control and turn the temp to as cold as possible the air con compressor doesnt kick in i dont think but i know for sure the engine fan doesnt kick in when i turn the a/c on
