ya had the problem to, i shut my car off and right when it shut off the fan would kick in then when i go to start it up the fan would stop. so what do u do---------------------> u cut that b*tch

Could be a couple things. Mine would turn on hours after the car had cooled down and would stay on until the battery died. It was a $40 part from the junkers that my mechanic said Honda wanted $400 for lol....some little black box thingy.

I had the same problem, it was the coolant thermo switch for that fan (radiator or A/C, each has its own). You replace it, it's like a couple minute job. By cutting it, you're looking to overheat your car later. Not a good idea.

Called a fan timer unit.

Fan timer unit eh... Sounds like the same symptoms. Anyone have a pic where it might be.. said it was right beside the main relay? I however have an odd kind of update... I was in the garage working on it again a few days ago (when i work on my car, my system is usually on with some tunes, sub off in the garage) when the fan came on... Note this rad has 2 fans on it.. yes 2! Only one fucker came on... the other one didnt start up... does this make a difference? If this little black box you speak of near the main relay is whats causing it, im going to do it this weekend... Also, when doing this, im going to change my battery, as its shot, it doesnt charge past 12.5V, so im swapping it out with one i have here... however the one i have is Side bolt terminal... im going to put adapters on it, and hook it up with side post... has anyone had problems with this?

Just seen your message Hondafan. Got 2 questions about that sensor,
1: if the car is running, and the fan turns on to cool it down, the sensor is fine right?
2: If the car is off, and the fan is on, removing the pigtail to the sensor should automatically shut off the fan correct? as it cant get a reading, the computer should read as 0 degree's and shut off the fan.. Please tell me if im wrong, im going for a longshot in the dark. (both temp sensors were replaced about 10K before i got tht ecar, so they only have about 20K on them..)

So i got it back today, they couldnt find anything wrong with the car, all the circuits were fine, and powered properly. The rad fan didnt kick in while they were working on it, and they checked both sensors, the relay, and everything else... so im at a loss, im going to get this timer on the weekend, and be done with it, im almost 100% sure thats it. They said the continuity for the sensors was good.. so yeah... other then that, it sounds like the shifter cable needs to be ajustted at the transmission... anyone know how to do this?
