Unhappy No cooling fans even with A/C on!

Here is my problem, my a/c isnt so cool and I have the left actuator code of b0361. The a/c dosnt get cold even on the pass side and I know it needs a little freon. The compressor still cuts on and runs. With this said both of my fans will not come on when the a/c is on. Does it have anything to do with freon level? I checked the relays and the closed sides of the relays are fine.
I do believe that the fan will come on at 226 and off at 219.

Little help please.

HI there,
FAns are on at 228.
As for the AC pressure, if the accurate pressure isnt met, they will NOT turn on, even with the AC commanded.
So, with that being said, run the engine to 228 and see if they turn on.
This will confirm that the LOW freon level is the cause of the condition.
Allthebest, c4c5

Thank you but if the compressor is still running and stays running wont the fans run? I know if the freon is low the a/c button will blink and shut off but mine runs.

HI there,
If the pressure is low enough, no, the fans will NOT turn on.
Allthebest, c4c5
