Hmmm...what ground wire are you talking about? Even unplugging the compressor clutch relay would not prevent the condenser fan from running.

The only grounds, if bad, that would prevent both the fan and compressor clutch from working would be G201 and G401:

And if they were bad, there would be many other electrical problems.

Okay. That makes sense. By convention, the passenger side of the car is referred to as the right side not the left side.

Yeah, by convention, right and left on a car are defined relative to facing forward in the driver's seat.

You must have had several other electrical problems that were also fixed by tightening G201, right?
