Does the ac compressor come on? If the system is low, the compressor will not come on and the cooling fan will only come on when called for by the temp.

yes the compressor comes on an will cool about 20 deg cooler that outside tem as long as car is moving when you stop the air coming out of vent starts to head up unless the fan comes on due to eng tem going up

Single or dual fans? If single fan, is it a two speed? Possibly fan motor or relay.
