This sounds like you may just have a bad thermostat. A stuck open thermostat causes the engine coolant to not reach operating temperature- thus the temp gauge will not move and looks like it is bad. Since the computer sees the fact that the engine has been running for a period of time, and the temp is not where it should be, it turns on the radiator fans as a default to prevent overheating- since it does not know what the coolant temp is. This condition is usually accompanied by a check engine light (SES) with code p0128.- TechJK --------------------------------- cooling fans come on as soon as i start the car

Why does a 1991 Honda civic engine cooling fan stays on?
The cooling fan is operated by an electric motor rather than the revolutions of the car's motor. If your fan is staying on I would investigate the electrical systems leading to the fan, if the key is in the on position it is probably allowing power to pass to the electric motor. Otherwise there may be some short in a switch that is meant to shut it off.
