Something is wrong with your electrical system, thats whats wrong.. =)
Just kidding..
I'm thinking you may have a bad ground, because that would make everything mess up, including your electric fan, which may make you run a little hot... Other than that, it could be something with the main fuse area, check that everything is connected and tightened down properly.. You may have melted something that you can't see.. Hopefully it's something simple..
Oh yeah, make sure that you have your engine grounded to the chassis or whatever, that may do it to. Many people have overlooked that and some strange stuff happens, because your alternator and other stuff may not be properly grounded to your chassis/rest of your electrical system... I'm really fishing for ideas here...
