The condenser fan is controlled by the DME, and its activation depends on inputs from a number of sensors in the engine and air conditioning system. I wouldn't worry about the fan too much at this point. But if the single wire to the compressor was getting battery voltage when ac system is activated and the clutch isn't engaging, the clutch is the problem. BMW doesn't sell the clutch separately from the compressor, but I remember a member or two having their clutches repaired with individual parts from a specialty shop or something. Definitely worth a search as I seem to remember them having success.
