So My ac clutch was shutting off and on,  but working fine in the morning. I then noticed the condensor fan wouldnt come on, so ordered a new one, put it on and it worked for a bit, and I havent seen it come on again. The ac works ok on the highway, but warms up on stop and go. the charge is fine.

Any Idea why the condensor fan wouldnt come on? Is it suposed to be on when the ac is or just when it feels like it?

Sorry, guess I didn't read all of your symptoms. Looking at the wiring schematic, there are 2 fuses near the battery, 10 amp(#13) and a 40 amp(most likely a fusible link). The cooling fan relay is grounded by the ECU and or the triple switch(I'm assuming the triple switch grounds it under high pressure conditions. How about your belt driven fan clutch, is that OK?? Have you blown out the rad and cond to remove dirt and debris??
