Hi Bee46,
If you are talking about the cooling fan next to the compressor - this fan must run together with the compressor.
In the situation you described I would recommend to replace this fan. You can not rely on it anymore and it can cause overheating and damage to the compressor.
- The part number for the condenser fan motor is
AP2111368
