the ac only kicks in , if power goes to fan
if resistor block opens UP, on any speed , the fan dies.
when fan dies for any reason , AC clutch is diabled. (AC amp functional logic)
whY:
easY. why ice up the evaporator ? now its plugged in ice , short order and no air at all.
IMHO.
yes, common with all cars with single speed motor.
or cars with out 3 phase AC , motors (100% electronic motors) called Variable frequency drive motors in the commercial sector.
ours is the Jules Vern type. ( i love em)
Battery >>> resistor >>>>> motor.
pick a resistor. with switch.
common fail.
the resistor runs hot, and has a finite life.
could be worse, the variable freq. controller bad for $1000
