Help AC problem

I can't find the old post of the AC problem.
It had to do with the clutch fan not engaging at Idle a PCM or electric clutch problem. The dealer put me online with the tech but he doesn't seem to understand what to look for. only 50 miles left on the warranty

As I suspected, the PCM was not engaging the fan while the motor was not up to temp. I was frantically was looking for the TSB that described the problem because the tech didn't believe me. So I told him I'm coming to pick up my truck and hung up. (Nicely) Well I guess that got him thinking (he didn't know the fan was controlled by the PCM) and he found the bulletin, reprogrammed the PCM and baam! It’s fixed. Never did find the old post but, remembered it
I owe this to FTE and all the knowledgeable people involved.
