The cooling fan comes on when the engine reaches a certain temperature and is controlled by a sensor switch that kicks the fan on when the temperature reaches the preset temp.

Why would an electric motor on a 1986 300ZX keep going after the car is turned off?

the Fan motor will keep running fort a short time after the car is shut off. the motor actually gets hotter after it is shut off so the fan cools it for a few minutes before cutting off. Actually, on all the mid 80s 300zx engines, there is a fuel injector cooling fan that directs cooling air on the injectors for a specific amount of time after the car has been run at normal operating temps and then shut off. Is your car a turbo z? If so then the fan that comes on is the fan that cools off the turbo after the key is shut off. Maybe you have an aftermarket fan set up for the air conditioner, but there again they usually come on while idling with the air on, but they generally shut off when the key is turned off. The fan is not used for cooling the turbocharger. The turbocharger itself is watercooled and does not have a need for a fan. The electric fan is for cooling the fuel injectors as mentioned in the previous post.


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.

Why does your fan motor run after the key is shut off?

The engine cooling fan will continue to run because the engine is hot. Once the engine has cooled down the fan will shut off. If it never shuts off you may have a bad temp switch or relay.

Why doesn't a 2000 Ford Windstar engine cooling fan not turn off?

Since most engine cooling fans these days are electric, they can (and will) run even with the ignition off and the key removed. This happens frequently after being run, and the vehicle senses that it needs to cool things down, so it will engage the fan automatically.


Why would the cooling fan of a 1991 Capri not come on?

First of all, perhaps the temps are not getting hot enough for the fan to operate. Is the thermostat stuck open all the time? Does the heater work properly? Simple test to ensure proper operation of the coolant sending unit for the fan: turn the ign. key to the power on position...Not start, but just power up the system until your dash... air bag/batt lights come on. pop the hood latch...open and secure. with the power still on remove the small wire connector that attaches to the coolant thermostat housing sending unit. This wire will be green in color with a small red line on it. The cooling fan motor should turn on with this wire disconnected from the sending unit. If you get a no fan operation after the disconnect...the culprit may be the fan itself or ? Need more info. to properly diognose this issue.
