On a 2002 GT should the radiator fan come on automatically when the AC is turned on, no matter what then engine temp is? Just wondering because I know when I recently switched to an electric fan on my 78 Cobra II it came with a relay that turned the fan on when the AC was turned on.

Yes its best to have the run when the a/c is on. Helps keep the head pressure down. Even more so with R134a that we have to use now-a-days.

yes it should when the a/c goes on the fan gets turned on also and keeps running until the A/C is shut off then its back to normal on/off with the temp sensor trigiring it

Well is there a relay that should turn it on with the AC because mine doesn't.
