Mac Pro? Or a MacBook Pro? If it is a 15" MacBook Pro or a Touch Bar 13" MacBook Pro it has dual fans so if one is only working you should get that looked at. All other 13" MacBook Pros only have one fan, like the MacBook Airs.

Your fan should always come on as it prevents overheating. You should worry if the fans DON'T come on 🙂

Make sure your Mac is elevated, don't sit it on a nice soft surface.
