    Dumb problem, let's solve it

    Just finished my F22A6 w/ Manual swap with my 400whp turbo setup. I am using a half size radiator with electric fan and now everytime the key is on, the fan stays running. I'm also getting an ECT sensor c.e.l. The ECT is replaced with a known good sensor and the connectors are correct. I never had this problem before on the old setup, so it is strange that nothing really changed from there and now it's happening. Anyone have any ideas?

      If that were bad or unplugged, wouldn't that cause the fan to not run at all?

        not if its stuck in the on-position. personally it would just be the first thing i checked, considering you replaced the fan and switch already.

          Also, the fact that the fans worked properly on stock engine/trans (auto) and it was working properly last time the motor was in the old car (1+ year ago?). I do not have AC, so I am only using the passenger side harness for the cooling fan, but if I plug it into the condensor fan harness, it does the same thing. Can it have anything to do with the harness? What wire colors go to the ECT and thermostat sensor (in the housing)?

            Green is ECT, they go to the water necks. There is a grey plug that goes on the head, right under the dizzy.

            Make sure you didn't get them mixed up.

                Grey plug is correct under the dizzy. Both green connectors are at the correct spots also. I think I may have solved the ECT problem, but we'll see. Fans still stay running with key on.

                    Different relay. There are two cylindrical type relays on the driverside inner fender for the fans, as well.

                      Both of those cylindrical relays seem to be connected properly. I'll double check those. The sensor in the front water neck, what is that one for?

                        The front one is for the a/c fan, the one on the thermo housing is for rad fan.

                          Okay, well, that one is brand new. The other sensors are known to be good. No more check engine light, but the fan still comes on and stays on. All connections and relays seem fine. WTF?
