Default efan wont shut off

1991 LX

the radiator fan *passengers side* wont shut off. If i disconnect the battery, wait for the fan to stop and then reconnect the battery it will stay off, otherwise it keeps running.

anyone know where the thermostat relay is located? i'm thinking this is the problem part.

thanks

The most common cause of that problem is the temp sensor that is inline of the top radiator hose, to prove it unplug the sensor when the fan is running. If the fan stops the sensor is bad.
If this doesn't help you the fan timer unit will need to be checked, repost for more help.

Sounds like the fan timer module is bad too. The job of the timer module is to shut off the fan EVEN IF THAT FAN SWITCH is stuck closed.
