AC Fan 850 1995

I have a 95 850 Turbo with ECC.
Sometimes when I turn my blower on, the fan will run for about 60 seconds, then just turn off. The only way to get it to start up again is either pull the fuse, and put it back in, or restart the car. Ive read that people have had similar problems, and cleaning contacts to the fan helped it, but that did not help me. I also remember reading somewhere that if your fan is cutting out randomly, or intermittently, that its a sign the fan power supply is going bad? I have looked for the power supply, but I dont know what it looks like to check it out. I know its around the fan, but thats it.

The problem seems to be at its worst (most often) in hot summer days, or colder winter days. My thoughts are to replace the power supply, but just wondering if anyone has any input. Thanks!
