So here's where it starts. Start down the road, turn on the A/C and get cold air blowing at me for about 10 miles, eventually becoming just the cab air circulating nicely with no "cold" added to it. Checked the fan for the condenser and find it is not turning. Disconnect it and use a light to determine the wire supplying power is doing its job, start to plug it back together and the fan makes an effort to spin a few revolutions while the connection is being made amongst arcing and sparking. Take it apart and repeat a few tims to ascertain that the above is all that is occuring and sure enough, that appears to be it. Is it the fan motor, and if so where do I get a replacement? The vendor was a "Davis" out of Texas, long since lost the full name and contact infor. Tried and failed to find it on this site, so any advice is welcome.
