so yeah the problem started about a month ago, at first, after shutting off the car, the fan would go on for 10-15 mins (never used 2 do that before) then 2 weeks later (2 weeks ago from today, till now) the fan will go off and on after i park my car and take the key out,

the fan will go Vrooom for like 20 seconds cut for 3 seconds, come on for another 5 seconds then go off.. THEN on for another min....

btw its a 95 automatic Honda Accord, I KNOW THIS IS THE civic/del sol FORUMS but this is my mom's car and you EG guys are way more technical then the guys in the accord forums... thanks in advanced

 

oh btw even if i haven't driven ALL day and the car is ice cold, if i turn the key to the ON position and then take it out, the fan will again go on!!!!

 

Something is telling the ECU the car is still warm and needs to be cooled down, it is normal for the fan to come on after the car is shut off tho btw.

 

its not really a problem unless it goes on and stays on for like 10 minutes after you park

 

check the relays..

 

thanks guys anyone else have ideas on what this could be? thanks guys it almost seems like its something "shorting out" however after speaking with a mechanic he didnt think it was the relays

 

check the relays... also check the censor, restart the ECU while your at it

 

def check the relays there was a service bulletin about this problem and it pointed at the relay as the culprit

Definately check them... My friends DA used to do that and he finally got a new fan relay and it doesnt do it any more!

 

thank u guys
