2014 Cooper S R57 with N18 engine. 40K miles. 99% stock.
I'm stumped! No Ac nor radiator fan operation.

1. AC compressor will not run. Clutch spins freely.
2. Tested fan - both speeds work when 12v is applied directly to each connector. See two speeds.
3. No 12v at the fan connector from the engine.
4. Both fan relays are working. Bench tested.
5. 7.5a and 50a fuses test OK.
6. Have never heard or have seen fan operate.
7. The car doesn't seem to overheat.
8. No error codes reported when scanned with BMW scanner.
9. A/C scan test states "not operate" when switch and light are on.
10. I have not checked A/C gas levels because I believe the fan not operating is causing the AC to do the same.
11. Have not tested coolant temp sensor since sensor failure typically causes the fan to continuously run.

What have I missed? Any ideas, please.

Low pressure switch in the AC system will cause it to not run. Check freon level, you probably have a leak in the system

 

Hi
Since not working. Found A/C empty and recharged. Got readings 32psi low and 152psi high after charge. The low-speed fan does not run but the compressor clutch is now engaging. Tested old fan with a 12v battery and ran when jumped by both leads. All relays and fused checked out OK. Ordered another new fan. First, one had a warped housing and couldn't be installed. Is there anything else I'm missing?
