One of the wires that goes to the motor prolly ate the the insulation and is shorting out or your fan motors are going bad. If you want to replace them i have a whole radiator and shroud and fans FS

ECU controls the fan relays; shorted relay/wiring in the box? Checkout, get replacement from junkyard. Whereever the box might be, its cover says the function, VGE:

One relay for one fan low speed, another relay for second fan low speed, third relay is for high speed (both). Want a schema? Check my w-page 1.; links.
