it makes sense that the drivers sided A/C condenser fan is going out, it takes a while to start getting really warm and it never gets extremely close to the red mark.

So, I am confused, why does it make sense that the left fan should have failed, both run equally?

I guess I couldnt convey what I was thinking.

It makes sense that I am taking a while to get hot since the left fan is out, if both fans were out then I would probably overheat or get hot much quicker.

DiscoMike, would this be another reason why my A/C doesnt get very cold? (since the fan is for the A/C condenser) My system was checked over by Landzu at his shop and everything was fine when I left, it was just not that cold.

One fan down will cause the A/c to not cool as much because it will allow the high presure side of the a/c to get to high causing the compressor to cycly on and off too quickly.

Went to the junkyard and picked up a fan off of a 93 Toyota Corolla A/C condenser and installed it. Works like a champ! No more getting too warm for me. The install was a pain in the butt for just a simple fan.
