Aux Fax Problem

Hi Guys,
Last week the car started running hot (100+, normal is 80 for my car). I got home and noted the Aux Fans were not running.
I found the Aux Fan Fuse (30A) and it was melted!

I picked up a couple fuses at the dealer today.
Before replacing the fuse, I was curious why it blew. ??
I think I found the problem.... One fan turns very hard, other spins very smoothly. My guess is the fan motor is shot,
I will do some testing, inductance/load on the motors.

Anyone have any hints / tips in the removal of the fans? My manual (chassis) doesn't cover that.

I will try to take pix and document the process.

Thanks in advance.
