look on the fan motor(s) for the wires. trace them as far backwards as you can looking for imperfection(s). if theres a cut in wire receiving power from another wire, causing it to run, at least clean the wire and wrap it with black electrical tape. then trace them/it to the temp switch on the engine. look for it to be on the thermostat housing or intake, and/or on the radiator if theyve started doing that

Could be the resistor. That's what made mine go weird in my contour/fusion
