Thanks for everyone's input. I was able to get everything working this afternoon. I pulled my ground wire from the negative terminal of the battery and grounded my circuit to the frame and that fixed it. Now the fans run off the switch I installed and the van starts and runs as normal.
Do you think it would be worth my time to add an inline fuse between the battery and switch? As a previous reply had pointed out, that's where the fuse should have gone.
Thanks again for your time. Have a nice day.

I would absolutely recommend putting a fuse between the battery and the switch in the engine compartment. You don't want too much heat build up around/near flammable material IE plastic of a dash. Better safe than sorry and shouldn't be too much more work.
Cheers
