Default Help Needed! Wiring for my Radiator Fan 2.6 V6

Hi guys, i need help here with wiring on my radiator fan. Two weeks back the fan didnt work as per thermostat setting even when temp reached 100 degrees. What the mechanic did was to just connect directly to the ignition (which i find it rather ridiculous and absurd). Now each time i switch on the ignition, the fan runs at high-speed mode irregardless of the engine temp. This is really bad not only for the engine but the extra load for the battery as well.

I was wondering if you guys could help me to sort this issue out. I attach images of my engine bay here for your viewing. Mine is a 2.6 V6 Audi 100.

Could you guys advise where i should start first for diagnosis? I'm really puzzled on this.

Your advise is greatly appreciated! Thanks
