Cooling fan, ac problem

Hi all. I have a strange problem. My car is a bmw x5 e70 3d. The cooling fan is not running. I have 12v on red and brown, and 3.5v in control cable.
Today i changed refrigerant gas and pressure switch, but the swich are showing 127.5 bar and ac is not working either.

What can this be?

You verified the fan has power, ground and signal. You did most of the diagnosis! If the engine gets to operating temp and the fan doesn't activate, you need a new fan.

Ac doesn't work because the fan isn't pulling air through the condenser. Also, your pressure is probably 127 psi, definitely not 127 Bar or you would have a bomb. The pressure is spiking because the high side is getting too hot. I'm sure the compressor us being switched off because of the overpressure
