Hi, i know very little about engines but my fan keeps coming on even though the keys arent even in the ignition. Could this be a problem with the D4 Connector as it happened just after i washed the car? I washed car by hand.

Thanks and any help would be much appreciated, i dont want to keep having to disconnect the battery every time i leave the car lol.
 
Yay in a bad way. Thanks, That seems to be the problem. So which is the fuse to the fan under the bonnet so I can stop it doin it whilst it's parked up?

Cheers

It's not unusual for the fan to start (or continue running) just after you turn off the engine - at least now when it's getting hotter outside. But it shouldn't do so for more than about 5 seconds. If it stays on for minutes I'd be worried.
 
The engine hadn't been running so was cold :confused: now the temperature has dropped all is well. Either that or the moisture has evaporated. There is some corrosion on the relays in the engine bay. I'll get a different one next week just in case. Are the fuse boxes the same for all models?
