Hi , Have a 96 with NA motor. The cooling fans wont shut off . Had to disconnect battery to keep it from going dead. I reconnected it after a minute and it worked normally for a couple trips then reoccured. I saw a previous post about looking for broken wires from temp sensor to PCM. Any other likely causes? Do you think a sticking relay could cause this? Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave..and welcome to the club.

I would personally aim straight to the relay. Replace/check the relay and let us know what you find.

Thanks Bill , I just picked up relays. It has 2 right? I will update with results. Dave

IIRC the low speed is one relay..and high speed is another. If you replace and that does not solve the issue...probe for ground coming into the relay. It could be that the wire is shorted or something is bad before that..however our experience is relay.

i know my fans stayed running all the time and i noticed the temp gauge was not functioning. turned out.....the temp wire was not hooked up. try checkin that if u haven't.

Thanks guys, Today I shotgunned 2 relays and the temp sensor at it. My GF drives this car and shes usually on the other side of houston with it 50 mi from me, so hopefully this will take care of it. Thanks and I will update in a couple days, Dave

You all will love this: I was going on info from GF that the car was intermittently having the fan not shutting off. So I swap vehicles with her and (fix it ) Tell her what I did and she says no not that. Its the FAN not shutting off. She says the inside fan! Doh!. Dave

LOL...Love it Dave.

Did you reach over and turn the switch to off?

Well, Did a search for blower motor problems and looks like maybe blower motor control module can cause the fan to stay on even with the car off. Im gonna take a look at that. Dave

Fixed the stuck on high Inside blower with a new blower control unit. Was $110.00 from a local parts place that does mostly wholesale and carrys acdelco. Oreilly and Azone dont carry it. Part is on the front of the firewall under the relay panel. Remove the 10mm bolts holding the relay panel to the firewall and you can pull the panel forward far enough to get at the blower contro unit. Prettty easy. Dave
