My issue is with the electric condenser fan.
I've checked out all the connectors under TIPM and at PCM and found zero corrosion.
Was wondering if there was an aftermarket setup that I could hook up to the electric fan.
Thermostat,relay.....

Did you confirm the fan is good? Also did you check the charge on the a/c system sometimes if low i have noticed the fan will not come on.

what you really need to do is get someone with a scantool check for codes that way and then command the fan on with it helps rule out some things check voltage ect.

I have a scan tool.
Not a real good one.
The code that keeps popping up every time I turn on the AC or the Defroster is p0481.
Malfunction Fan control circuit II.
It clears after 3 cycles of driving as long as I don't turn them back on.
When the temp Guage hits °206 the code pops back on too
