And this fan is triggered on by A/C pressure not simply that the compressor engages. So, if ambient temperature is not real hot the fan will not come on for some time. It is also triggered on by engine temperature thru another circuit, so again, if engine temperature is stable within range, the fan will take forever to turn on.
