FAN SETUP Question

Ok I'm going to be wiring up a fan switch on my 3.1L V6, My setup is going to involve the wire that goes from the Fan relay to the ECM. The way it works on my car is the ECM grounds the FAN relay to Run the fan. I want to add a 2nd Grond using a wire and a switch to ground the fan relay in front of the ECM but leave the ECM connect so that it can ground the FAN for the A/C. My question is will this hurt the computer and will it work.
