If by cooling system you mean the cooling fan, it takes a while for the coolant temperature to rise enough to trigger the temperature sensor that activates the fan. This is to help warm up the engine and to avoid unnecessary operation of the cooling fan when it is not needed.

Why do cooling fans only come on when you turn on AC on your Honda CR-V?

The CRV has a very efficient cooling system and the fans only come on as necessary to assist cooling. When you engage the A/C they usually kick on for a minute or two to maintain coolant temperature and will kick back off if they are not needed. So, if you are not overheating you probably don't have anything to worry about. If you are overheating you probably have a bad fan relay.

I have an 2001 grand am as i am bleeding the cooling system it overheats no fans kick on but if ac turned on the fans work?

I believe that the fan(s) come on automatically with the AC system. Someone else might be able to confirm that. If so, then I would guess that you need to find and replace the temp sensor/switch for the fans.


Why does the cooling fan on a 2006 Nissan 350Z does not turn on?

Because its probably not working. Try turning on the AC to see if they both kick on and make sure to do this when the car is warm. If the car is cold they fans wont kick in.


Why does your ac compressor kick in out on your car?

The A/C is supposed to cycle on and off and this is normal. If however it is cycling on and off very quickly or seems to not be cooling as it should, it more than likely has a leak and is low of refrigerant. Take it to a professional, have the leak repaired, and the system recharged.
