Fan turning on and not turning off !!!

Post by K50-DAN »

I started my car up this morning and as soon as I turned my ignition on, the fan kicked in. I drove it too work and it was still on. Ive took the fuse out and its stopped but ive never had this happen before, any ideas ? thanks

no, the aircon was turned off, I did turn it back on and off to see if that cured it but nothing. Since ive put the fuse back in, its not come on so that's good :)

This has happened again, but I disconnected the battery for over half an hour and took the number 2 fuse out which is causing the high speed fan to stay on and I connected it all back up and its still coming on, really concerned now :(
I've had to leave the fuse out as its staying on without the key in the ignition...help !!!! :(

Could be a faulty resistor, think it's located behind the console trim in the passenger foot well
