Why is my condenser fan cycling on my Fleetwood Southwind?
Believe the condenser fan was short cycling because the motor was about to go out. Replaced and all is well. We bought a 2003 Fleetwood Southwind in April and took it from New Jersey to Florida and experienced the fan clutch cycling when the AC was on and going uphill.
What happens when a condenser fan is not working?
at BURNED-OUT COMPRESSOR, if the condensing unit fan is not working the compressor itself may shut down or even be ruined by overpressure or over temperature.
Where is the condenser coil on a country coach?
Look forward to hearing from others with the same coach. CC stand for Country Coach- it has a Cat C9400 HP and the condenser coil is located in front under the passenger area. There is an electric fan to blow air across coil that cycles regularly (like every minute) and runs for 15 seconds.
What to do when your condenser unit stops running?
at COMPRESSORE FAILURE DIAGNOSIS. If the condenser unit fan won’t start at all, check for power to the unit and to the fan motor and that all of the controls are calling for cooling (or heat pump operation); check for loose, disconnected wires; Check for a frozen fan motor (motor won’t turn manually when power is off).

How does a condenser fan on a motorhome work?
Normally the fan is controlled via a relay that is attached to the power for the AC compressor clutch control. so if the AC compressor comes on then the fan also starts. So then the question is if the AC compressor is short cycling and causing the fan to cycle.
Is there a way to turn off the condenser fan?
Hopefully you will hear from others with the same coach. Approved ways to turn on/off the condenser fan include using a thermostat or pressure switch. It may be that the short 15 second fan cycle is enough to take the temp/pressure from cut-in to cut-out. Look forward to hearing from others with the same coach.
