I then decided to pull the Fan relays and jumped them with a wire. I confirmed that both low speeds were not kicking in and only the high speed was coming on. I decided to replace the resistors on the fans but when I looked at the fans, made the ultimate decision to replace both fans with new units and now can confirm that my power draw issue has been fixed. I tested the relays by jumping them and now all speeds work. No more issues.

Curious... did you replace with OEM fans or aftermarket? I had the same/similar problem with one of my fans... read some 'reviews'... and settled upon OEM. Yours might be a story to follow.
OEM? AM? Thanks.
