Help me figure this out

Why would a fan cycle on and off constantly?
Thanks Cin

Because the voltage supply is cycling intermittently? Sorry, I'm a bit of a smart ____ just ask my wife.

I have really no ideas other than a weak relay, temperature switch going flakey. What's this on?

If I'm not mistaken on all of the trucks in her signature don't have an electrically controlled fan clutch from the factory. So if that's the vehicle you're talking about, the viscous fan clutch might be bad.
