Asked by JeffDLow Mar 26, 2010 at 04:58 PM about the 2004 Volkswagen Jetta

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Electric cooling fans will not shut off.  Do not have a fuse layout either.  Any info would be great.

Since this system is meant to operate even with the key in the off position There is a cooling fan module that takes the input of the cooling fan switch in the radiator and determines to operate the fan or not. Locate the fan switch - it may be shorted keeping the fan on OR it could be the control module itself. More information on engine would help tell which system you have.
