If they don't, then the high speed fans will start running at a somewhat higher coolant temperature, Another forum member or a search may say what those trigger temperatures are.
I have an issue with my right side fan not running at low speed. This results in in a +5 to +10 coolant temperature. When I turn the A/C on, both fans function and the temp drops to normal. I was under the impression that the A/C turned the fans onto high speed? I have a '97
