I remember when I drove Exora, the same thing will occur if I drove long distance. The fan will continue to run for say 5 to 10 mins before powering down.  Proton....

CFE or CPS?

3.5-year old Exora, so has to be CPS. Why? Does it make a difference?

Then probably got problem liao.

If it's CFE then it's normal, the fan would continue to run for minutes after switching off the engine.

its the same for most cars. The radiator fan will continue to run as long as the engine is still hot(certain temp), after a hard run, my fan will run for up to 10 min after engine has been shut

Yes, but the CFE tend to do so even after driving normally (not driven hard), as it seems to run quite hot.

I could not understand why many talk about fuse. Fuse purpose is to blow and cut off power when there is fault in device it is powering like fan, radio, etc. Once blown, it needs to be replaced.

The relay is the correct suspected component since its job is to switch on and off. If relay stuck, it cannot switch off. I do not own Saga but on most car with electric fan to cool the radiator, once the engine is turned off, there is sensor on the engine part that send signal to the relay. If the sensor detect the engine is still hot, it will keep the relay on. When the engine has cool down to certain level, the sensor will send signal to relay to power off the fan.

So, if the relay is okay, I would check if the sensor is functioning properly or not. This is what I can advise. Ask the car electrician if there is such sensor as I'm not Saga expert  blush.gif

The relay is inside the fusebox.
