DON'T touch those items unless your aux. fan is working properly. Put a set of A/C gauges on your A/C system, you will see the high pressure side go up and the compressor will shut off if the aux. fan doesn't operate. The aux. fan cools the A/C condensor to keep the high pressure side in proper range.
So, step number one is to verify correct operation of aux fan.
You should have a 3 prong Temp. Switch that looks something like this. If you unplug the connector that goes on the 2 prongs and short them out at the connector, the aux. fan should operate. In theory, that is what the temp. sw. does...the 2 pins make continuity when the temp. reaches 110 degrees C.
