Default Electrical Gremlin A/C Kills the car

Okay heres the deal. It was raining pretty hard today when i left work so i turned on the A/C fans to defrost the windows (A/C no longer in the car just left fans in for this purpose). When i turned them on i started hearing a clicking sound and about 5 seconds later my car died. I figured out teh sound came from behind the driver side kick panel. I pulled it off and picked up the fuel relay. When i started the car again i turned on the A/C fans again and it was the fuel relay that ways clicking. Then it stopped and this is when the car died. Has this happen to anyone. I just can figure out why the A/C would be tied in through the fuel relay. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

A/C fans huh You mean the blower motor? That's for the heat originally, once A/C was invented, it just utilized it. Or do you mean the second fan, which is used when the A/C is on (or the car is really hot).

Either way, I can't imagine why that would effect the fuel electronics.

The actual blower motor. The one inside of the car by the passengers feet. Sorry about that. Im not sure either that is why I can't figure it out. Figured i would see if anyone else has had this problem.
