It's a simple circuit if you back track it. There's a switch that allows current to flow to a relay. Check the switch, check the relay. See what you come up with.

My ac is off , my friend said it might be doing it because there's only one fan and it turns on as soon as you start the car because there's no other fan

thats a horrible theory lol. either the coolant temp sensor is bad and it turns the fan on as soon as it gets power, or u have a wiring issue like stated above that needs to be traced
