I got mine back from repair before last weekend. I ran it about 40 to 50 minutes and found I had a broken fan blade. When I got home I took the fan out to replace it & found that the fan wires had some of the insolation rubbed off the wire right where the wire turns under the edge of the PCB. Had I run the car much more this bare positive wire would have shorted out on the PCB. If the positive wire on that fan shorts out I'm sure it will take other stuff out. This whole problem MIGHT be as simple as poor wire routing & nothing more.
