saxo cooling fans

Hi...I think I have a problem

I own a saxo 1.5d that has air conditioning...ther are 2 fans/ventilators under saxo´s hood,and I wanna know a bit more about them...

for example;when the air.cond. is ON both fans start to run,slowly(at 1.gear )
also,when the air.cond.is OFF and the temp. on the temp.indicator/gauge increases over 2/4 of the temp.indicator both fans starts to run,slowly and when temp.falls/decreases the fans turn off

my problem(maybe)...
when the aircond. is ON(both fans runing slowly/first gear) and the temp.on the temp.indicator raises more than 2/4 of the temp.indicator the left fan STOPS to work,while the right fan starts to run faster/shifts to 2.gear...??when the temp.on the indicator decreases,the both fans start to work at 1.gear/slowly

is this normal or...??

theres a blue sensor just above thermostat housing. Disconect cables from it while car is running, both fans should kick in full speed. If not take of your front bumper and check fan relays.

thanks for the answer...the front bumper was down a month ago because the fans did not work at all-2 wires were in short-circuit and because of that the fuse was burning out

I just wanna know is it normal that the left fan stops when the right fan switches to 2.gear??
