Thank</TD></TR></TABLE>It's actually called a fan timer module, & it controls the radiator fans. One temperature switch (usually in thermostat housing) is responsible for running the fans when the engine's running. Another temperature switch is responsible for running the fan after you turn off the engine. Even if the 2nd switch sticks 'on', the timer will turn off the fan.
Sometime before '98, Honda got rid of that system. My '98 Accord doesn't have a timer module, has only one fan switch, and the fan can't run after you turn off the engine.

Re: Radiator fan timer location
I just replaced my heater hose at the dizzy and the temp gauge is going hot. noticed that the fan on the air box side kicks on after the car is off. if i replace said timer, will it solve my issue?
