That's because when you do that your system goes into open loop mode, the computer thinks something is wrong, trips the SES light (should have) and turns on the fan.
Unplugging a couple of the sensors will trip the fan.

switch with a known working relay. if the problem goes away you found it. all the relays are the same except the abs one.
