Was it running and suddenly quit? If so check the circuit breaker. Was the charge recently adjusted (freon added) if so it may be overcharged and shut itself down on the high pressure safety, if the condenser coils are blocked or dirty this could also cause a high pressure trip. If the unit is a newer one the reset would be to interrupt power briefly 30 seconds or so and turn it back on. Otherwise there is a push button reset inside the condenser.
The fan relay is most likely stuck closed. Remove the relay to see if the fan stops running, if the fan stops, replace the relay.
The relay actuated by the thermostat which starts and stops the compressor and condenser fan in the outdoor unit.
Yes, when the fan stops and the compressor keeps running it is in defrost mode. You should also be running auxilliary heat while this is happening.
The outdoor unit only runs in the AC mode(unless it is a heat pump). If you have the system off and the fan on, the outdoor unit should not be on. You can run the indoor fan only without harming the system.
Replace blower control module. Usually the fan starts acting erraticaly and eventualy just stops.
Yes both indoor and outdoor fans will operate, the only time 1 will stop in heat mode is in defrost the outdoor one stops briefly to defrost better,
the AC is run by a belt that is connected to the engine. if you turn the engine off, the belt stops moving. No belt movement means no power for the AC. the fan will only blow air, not cold air.
Indoor fan = steel, Outdoor fan = aluminum.

Most likely you damper is not opening or your fan motor is not running Check the fan motor if is running also look for vacuum line leak this may affect the damper
If it's the one on the radiator, and it stops running after a few minutes, then it's been designed by Mazda to work like that. If it runs until the battery goes flat, you have a short circuit somewhere, supplying the fan with power.
The switch had a meltdown or the high speed relay is stuck.
