Default P0480 AC Fan acting weird

Hey everyone, I’m new to the forum and new to Hyundai ownership. My wife and I bought a 2007 Entourage Limited with 111k and are very happy with it. I’ve had to fix a few things that were all pretty simple (noisy water pump, both CV axles, sway bar links, bearings and front brakes, fluid changes, etc).

Im having an issue with my AC and a P0480 code and I suspect they are related. When I’m at idle sitting still the AC tends to get warmer than when I’m driving. It’s still kind of cold, but not like it is when we’re driving.

Both of my fans are working. However today I let the van warm up to see what it does. If the AC and defrost is off then both fans were running constantly. As soon as I turned on the AC or defrost then both fans would start to cycle on and off fairly quickly. I verified this by turning the AC off and on a few times and watching the fans every time for a minute or two. They never cycled with the AC off but they always cycled with the AC on.

Looking forward to learning more about the Hyundai and enjoying it with my family. Thanks in advance for any help.

One of the first things I would do is;
Connect or have someone connect a set of gauges to the system and make sure there is adequate refrigerant in the system.

You could have all sorts of problems if the system is not sufficiently charged. Once you know that is correct , if necessary go from there.
