E fan wiring gone wrong!!!
Ok so i got a used 3 relay nelson harness for my perma cool dual 14 in fans. Installed grounds, positives, pcm pin 42 and tapped into the ac green wire. Wired the fans, and the pin 42 in turned on. Problem started when i turned on the truck and nothing worked. Waited for temps to raise and still nada, nothing. Turn on the A/C and one fan works on on high. So i start testing with wire tester and when grounding the tester and tapping into the pin 42 the other fan turn on on high. Never both on ob high or low speed. Checked relays and all of them work. What in the world is going on. On its being installed into truck in sig, 03 silverado

Make sure the contact you put into the PCM connector is seated all the way. I couldn't get mine to turn on for the longest time, then I found that the contact wasn't seated all the way. Use a paperclip or something tiny like that to wedge in there and push all the way in. You should feel it click twice I think, and you will be able to see it on the other side of the connector.

make sure its the right green wire, allen helped me installed mine when I got my tune and I believe it was doing the same thing you said, so we went back into the wiring and believe we had it on a different one...

It is the dark green wire , will send 12 volts when A/C is on (clutch cycles) , when tested with Ohm meter . As said "same color as in harness" .
Here is a mod that I had to do to mine to get it to stop pulling major voltage when fans were triggered by A/C.
Not a real good drawing , but I used the Nelson 3 relay harness moved a couple of wires and added the 4th relay for my pin 33 (high temperature) 2005 pcm trigger wire , can be used for switch or temp trigger .
