Default Cooling fan not working

so a couple of weeks ago my radiator fan seems to be malfunctioning. it appears to work initially but then after running for a little while the fan stops kicking on. my mechanic ran the diagnostic test and it said to service the fan control module(MODULE ASM-FAN CONT). I've replaced this part twice and still have same problem...wtf!! solutions to this issue? 08 z06 ECS SC 1500 KIT 23K

Check the connector to the module. They tend to burn up.

Also check 60 amp fuse(25) cooling fans in the fuse box/engine compartment. I had the same problem my fuse box and connector were burned up.

If it's burning up a 60 amp fuse, the fan motor is probably on its way out, which could take the module out with it. Tuners love turning the temps way down low so the fans are running constantly. Mine doesnt go to 90% duty cycle until 220 or so. Coolant temps are rarely over 200 when the fans only at 15-20%.
