Wondering if you have a rub through in the wiring.
Would check the entire harness wherever it touches anything.

One way I have found intermittent shorts is to wire a meter with a beeper across the short so it beeps when shorted.
Then start moving EVERYTHING. (Wiring)
When you find it, the beeping will stop.

Hope this helps!

There is also a grounding block really close to fuse box as well.. Hidden under the coolant tank on mine.. Not the overflow but the primary. Sounds like you missed that one.
