Default Radiator Fan Operation - Questions

Trying to diagnose my radiator fan problem and have a few questions:

a) When the TT overheats, does only the one (right most facing the TT) fan come on?
I know when autocrossing and the TT overheats, it will only cool down when I turn on the AC, which apparently controls the 2nd fan.

b) Is the A/C disabled below a certain outside temp.?

c) Is the 2nd fan interlocked such that it will only run when the 1st fan is already running?

d) Where is the fan controller?
TIA, John

Default No - both fans come on at slow speed at first then ...

high speed at higher temp - controlled by the fan thermal switch in the radiator. The a/c will start BOTH fans in high speed. The fan controller module is underneatyh the battery.
