OK

Spin both fans by hand to make sure they are free ..if YES , then rap them both with a rubber hammer at the hub center..brushes may be hung up

Then do the jumper from bat again...

i'm sure it will be me....wow, talk about a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Alright. Tapped on the fan bearings (passenger side) with a rubber mallet. Loosened it up enough to spin by hand, still a little "crunchy" but will spin by hand. The other fan (driver's side) spun by hand at first try.
Tried to jumper...with no success.
What now?

OK

Two possibles ..
One is both fans are bad and you have only noticed the problem when the last one went out..meaning they most likely did not crap at the same time..

Second is you have a bad/poor connection between the R15 terminals and the fan motors.. The motors have a common plug for both, so you may want to check that plug
it is tucked in behind the fan cage and hard to get to, but look around for it.

Also make sure the wires are tight on the R15 where you jumpered 12 V. pos to.
If you put a test lamp at the terminal oppisite the one you are jumping to, that will confirm you have a good jumper feed.

My guess is bad fan motors.

Well, the fan that would not turn by hand was very tight and only by really whacking it was I able to get it going. I think it may have just burned up the motor. the other fan turns by hand but doesn't spin really freely like you think it would.
My guess is the fan motors as well. Would the compressor run if both of these fans were shot? Are they connected in that way. My old Saab with two electric fans would not even engage the compressor if both were not functional.

No

Fans are only there to add extra airflow across the condenser when a High Termal Load condition exist , thereby keeping the high side pressures in check.
That is why they are called " Aux Fans"...the are not called for until extremely high ambients present inadequate airflow for condenser/ pressure or higher than normal engine load brings coolant temps to 105C...
The a/c circuit is always low fan and coolant temps trigger high fan..

...and they have nothing to do with one another except the two circuits share the same fan motors......
