condensor fan question

I need to know how often does the condensor fan supposed to run.It is a 1996 3.2.Is it supposed to run the entire time the A/C is on? Also,Is it only supposed to run when the AC is on or does it also help keep the radiator cool when the radiator fan is not enough?

It will run based on temp of the water. You think it is running excessively?

Condensor and Radiator fans should always run together whether AC is on or coolant temp causes fans to engage. If only radiator fan is running, you likey have a bad condensor fan, but it needs to be checked to be sure.

good luck
