Best Answer

The operation of the fan is controlled by an independent engine temperature switch. Depending on the temp. of the engine block the fan with switch on/off. It's not uncommon for the electric fan to switch on once you stop the engine because the flow of radiator coolant through the engine stops when you turn the engine off. Without the coolant running through the engine and radiator the temperature of the engine will spike for a short time triggering the electric fan. It should shut off after a few moments.

Why would the engine cooling fan on a 1998 Dodge Caravan stay on when engine is cool?

The fan is usually meant to cool the radiator. It shouldn't be anything to worry about. Since the radiator cools the antifreeze that has come from and circulates through the engine, as long as the fan is running, the coolant is remaining at a good temperature and you won't have to worry about overheating.

The fan will run continuously if the A/C is on or the heater is set to Defrost. If that is not the case then either the thermal relay for the fan is stuck closed or the engine is running hot.

What would cause the temp gauge to bottom out and stay in that position and the fan on the motor to run constantly?

The thermometer that reads your engine temperature, I presume, is damaged or broken. Without the gauge to tell your fan how hot your engine is it will keep running as a 'better be safe then sorry' feature.
