Cooling Fan Ground where?

Hey Guys I am in need of alittle help.

Ive just diagnosed, that I have no ground off of my cooling fans. Does the harness have a ground lug on it, bolted somewhere to the body, and if so where?

The engine was removed along with my front mount intercooler at a shop, and the fans were intermitent after and now have no ground making me believe if it is a lug the bolt worked loose or a connector that isnt plugged in all the way.

Anyone have any insight?

We got it figured out, the ground is behind the front bumper. Seems something may be a bit loose. Just touched the connection and the fans started working. Will have to pull the bumper completely fix the ground.

We also jumpered the number 3 relay, I took it apart and modified it so when the ecu turns on 2 & 4 relays, he will at least get slow, and with the A/C on medium, normal opperation. when the main ground is working as it is still intermitent, the fans will just speed up, to either medium or high when the A/C is on.

The No 3 Relay was easy to modify.

The ground will be repaired when the car goes in for paint in a month or two and they are changing bumpers and well fix it then.
