97 Cherokee - Fan keeps running after shut down
Evening folks. Got a problem with my Jeep. After I turn off the ignition,
the fan keeps running. Don't remember this ever happening before. I
understand some vehicles do this till the engine cools down, but I didn't
think the Jeep did this. I did Google searches but could not find any
reference to this specific issue.
I tried disconnecting the negative battery terminal for several minutes,
but the fan came back on after I reconnected it.
Any ideas?
--
Thanks,
Bill

Without the schematics I'm just guessing, but a stuck relay could
do this. Or that could just be the way it works and you never noticed
before. :)

Re: 97 Cherokee - Fan keeps running after shut down
Jeep fans can come on any time as far as I know. It should say so on
the fan shroud as a warning sticker.

Could be the later <sheepish grin> I went back out a half hour later, and
it had stopped. Drove a half hour and it did it again. I'm thinking that
my belts are loose/need replacing and it's running hotter than normal?
Take care,
