I've solved it, the pins that were in that fans cable plastic were broken, i cutted the cables from the plastic, tested the wires on my Arduino and the fans works, just have to solder it now to the gpu.

if anyone reading this post, Gigabyte HD 7970 windforce owners or none windforce, you probably dont want to take off the fan cable out from the gpu board when you want to replace your thermal paste, probably it will broke or something, just a tip to prevent problems.
