Normally the Auxiliary fan will engage when the A/C turns on. Suddenly, the A/C not cooling, then I found that the fan is not running. I did a bypass test on the fan seems it is working.

Can you give a little detail on how you bypassed the system to get the fan to come on? Did you just jump power to the fan or did you bypass a switch?

I suspect you have a sensor issue which is causing the ECM to not turn the fan on. Let's get this info and go from there because if you jumped a sensor like the pressure sensor, then that is your issue.

Let us know this info and we can go from there. Thanks
