Jimmy,
Your best bet is to run a relay from the A/C clutch power. Run your 30A fused power to the relay and the normally open contact of the relay to the fan motor.
The A/C thermostat would cause the clutch to operate when cooling is needed, this then operates the relay and provides power to the fan, without needing to draw the ~10A thru the ACC control wiring or controller.
