I did not get a chance to spend much time this weekend on the car, but found the timer hidden behind the remote starter unit. Daughter took the car to school today and of course it died in the lot. Soon as i put a booster cable on it the AC fan started to run. Boosted it and drove home, opened the hood, the AC fan was off and radiator fan was on. Rather than let the battery run down, i removed the radiator fan relay. Then reached under the dash and disconnected the timer, then reinserted the relay, fan stopped running. I do not like doing things this way because you never really get anywhere. Calling for rain & snow so i likely will not get another chance till the weekend.

To cover my corners, here is a question. The wiring diagram in Chilton and Haynes shows a condensor fan relay and radiator fan relay, although in the fuse box under the hood there is no condensor relay and nor is there anything on the plastic cover to indicate this car has one. However, there is a socket that does not have a relay but the fuse cover has it crossed out to indicate not used. If this car has no condensor fan relay, how does it work. I guess it can get confusing when a schematic covers several years and options on cars.

Rather than become confused, i disconnected the fan timer and let my daughter take the car to school till the weekend. Then i will check the timer unit carefully & go from there.
