I have a 2000 DII when AC is on the fan is not working, there is a cold air coming out when I drove plus I already did a 1.5 psi freon refill. The fan is not working at all, could it be the motor, fan or condenser? Is it an easy DIY to fix?
 
This refers to my Discovery 2 51 plate

If you are referring to the fan just behind the front grill in front of the condenser matrix the chances of it ever working are pretty slim. I had a leak in one of the a/c pipes and the guy who fixed it found that the fan was seized solid. After a bit of research I found the following in the Land Rover manual, I did however replace the fan with a working one.

'While the a/c system is on, operation of the electric cooling fan to assist refrigerant condenser operation, is determined by a combination of vehicle speed and external air temperature. When cooling fan operation is required, the ATC ECU outputs a cooling fan request to the ECM, which then energises the cooling fan relay. The cooling fan request is output if vehicle speed is 80km/h or less while the external air temperature is 28c or 82f or more. The request is cancelled and the cooling fan switched off if either the vehicle speed increased to 100km/h or the external air temp decreases to 25c or 77f'.

So you see no wonder the fan seizes through lack of use in this country
Hope this helps
