My air conditioning has a 4 speed fan. from the first to the third speed the compressor starts but the fan doesn't. in the forth speed the fan starts but the compressor shuts down. what may be the problem?

So now you have all fan speeds and compressor is hooked up and running but no cold. does AC change modes say vent, floor , defrost? Engine compartment fuse box check fuse # 3
