What kind of vehicle do you have? Some of the minivans had a bad cooling fan relay module.

Sorry, I'm new to the site. I have a 2004 Dodge Caravan. It also does not do it every time I drive. I am wondering if the coolant temp sensor is sticking. Is this possible ?
Thanks for the reply, Much Appreciated

Most likely is the cooling fan module that mounts to the front bumper behind the grille. To the center of the drivers side headlight. It riveted to the bumper,.

Changed the cooling fan relay module on bumper. Didn't fix problem. Now the fans run all the time. I have to pull fuse each time I shut of engine. I am thinking it may be the temp sensor ?
