Connected the wire to battery power and only the drivers side fan would barely spin and move very little air. The wire would also get warm.
Disconnected the passenger side fan and only wired in the drivers side fan. Connected the power and the d-side fan came on at full power.

What would cause the p-side fan to not work and how would I go about fixing it
On the side that is not working.
Trying testing that fan up separately.
Ground 1 Wire, and put the other wire to a 12v source. Hopefully the fan will react and start spinning.

If that doesn't work. Most likely the motor for that fan is shot.

You could have possibly overpowered the passenger side motor for the fan.
Did you just buy these? or have you had these fans for awhile?
