    Sounds like your ECT sensors may be going out or you have a open/short int eh wiring to the sensor. Did you recently do a thermostat change?

        pull the plug on that sensor and fix the wires.. your fans stay on as a safety feature of the computer.. computer doesn't know the coolant temp so it keeps the fans on just in case..

                Perhaps you should take a picture or be more descriptive with the problems you are having. Just telling us you have a sensor that wires wont go into doesnt give us much of a mental picture to go on. Is something bent? Broken off? There must be a reason these "wires" are not staying in place. What shape is the connector in?

                    Do you HAve a manual Fan switch? When I put my switch in MY 99 camaro set those same codes the only way yo get rid of it is to take out the fan switch. or else it will keep coming back.
