It could be that your engine is still hot. Otherwise, there could be a short in the heat sensor or relay so that it's always "on." Whenever you trun on the ignition, the fan will come on too.

How does the rad fan on a 1986 Honda Prelude come on?

There is a temperature switch on the passenger side bottom of the radiator that has a wire connector attached to it. The switch screws into the radiator and then the wires connect to that. That switch is what tells the relays to turn the cooling fan on. If your fans don't turn and the engine is running hot you can test the switch using the following steps. 1. turn the ignition to the on position but don't start the engine. 2. disconnect the wire connector to the switch on the bottom of the radiator. 3. using a small jumper wire, jump the two wires inside the connector. If the fans turn on then you will need to replace the temp switch. If the fans still don't turn on then you will need to check the fuses, relays, and the fans themselves.

Why does your Honda Civic heatup?

Sometimes it is a bad fan switch located just under the thermostat housing. Usually the temp gauge will hot in the city and normal on the highway. You can pull the plug off the switch ( with ignition off ) and use a paper clip to jump the terminals on the plug, then turn the ignition to on, not start and the fan or fans behind the radiator should turn on, if not it could be a bad fan relay in the fuse box. A new switch is about $40.

Why are the fans in your 1989 camaro iroc z not working?

The fans are electric. Either the fan motors have stopped working or the temperature switch that turns them on is broken. I would replace the switch and see if you can get the fans to come on. You can get a switch from RockAuto.com for about $8.00 and one fan motor for about $75.00.
