The rear part fan is not used when printing with ABs.

Ok, perfect.

I think i will change the washers of the heating bed with some plastic ones because there's a short circuit if they are too tight to the bed circuit board.

Washers are stamped out of a sheet of steel and have sharp edges on one side and smooth edges on the other. Just ensure that the smooth edges are facing the heated bed.

Another solution is to change the heater polarity - swap over the wires in the screw connectors.

If you do decide to use an insulating washer, then please bare in mind that the bed reaches temperatures in excess of 100 degrees Celcius.
