Engine Fan

Every single time i drive home, and turn my car off, the engine fan comes on. ALWAYS. If i run my car goin home, or if i dont go over 3k rpm doesnt matter. None of my other cars did this. Normal?

have you played with any of your wires lately?? what i did at one time is i accidently switched the oil temp sensor plug (under head beside vtec) and the coolant temp sensor (next to top radiator hose infront of head) and it made my vtec not work and the fan stay on all the time.

Well then if its good for the car, its good for me! I thought it was because i abuse my car. Its the Inner taxi driver in me.

I dont think its too bad i waited around last night a couple times, and never goes for more than 2-3 minutes.

It is my experience that if something suddenly changes, there is a problem. And yes, my old 90' Teg did that, but it was the fault of the thermostat not opening properly. Not long after that, I smelled coolent and had to replace my radiator. These cars seem to give you warning that they are going to take a crap on you. PAY ATTENTION TO THE LITTLE THINGS, it will save you headaches in the long run.

Peace, love and ACURA
