Cooling fan current draw?
Hello everyone, can someone please tell me about how many amps the radiator cooling fan(s) draws? Also, is one fan specifically for the A/C and one for engine cooling, or are they both controlled at the same time? I would assume the former. Any info you can provide will be helpful, thanks.

blackcat, the fans for the A/C/radiator pull about 30 amps when they are running at full speed. But, keep in mind that the ECM will control the fans such that the ramp up based on the cooling needed. So, for example, if the car is sitting in traffic and not moving on a cool day, the fans may just barely turn. Yet, you turn on the A/C system to keep you cool, the fans will go to max speed regardless of the engine temp.
Both fans run at the same speed all the time relative to each other. If you need any other information, let me know.
