Radiator Fan Stays on after car is off....
Hey guys
Last week I drove 130 miles upnorth and ever since then, my radiator fan has been staying on for a little while after turning my car off. Even if I only drive my car for like 5 minutes and turn it off, the fan still stays on. I didnt really think anything of it b/c I know this can be normal for a honda's fan to stay on for a few minutes if its really hot. However, today after driving my car for like 20 minutes, I shut it off and noticed the fan was still on 2 hours later. I ended up unplugging the fan. Could my thermostat be bad? Is it a problem with the radiator itself? Any suggestions would be helpful
Thanks guys

2 hours later! Ouch... Maybe there's a short or something.
