Thanks alot @BipBip1981
Changing the values at FCTEMPS from `/dev/thermal-cpu/temp1_input` to `/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp` fixed it.
My dumb ass then updated the system via OVM and after a reboot the fan started spinning non-stop again, this time:

I somehow pieced the new value together via:

Fan is silent now and fancontrol.service is active (running) with:
