Radiator Fan Help

This is on my accord. But i think the problem is a general problem amongst cars.


I recently noticed (the past 2 days). That once I turn the car off that the fan remains on and it spins for quite a long time. My question is what do you think could be wrong with it?

I never had this problem before and even on the hot days my engine would not need the fan on after I shut the car off. The engine temperature level is normal and so is the engine oil level. I am thinking its the thermostat but can someone confirm on this.
rad fluid level is normal too.

The fans are programed to come on at a certain tempature and go off at another. It could be the coolant tempature sensor is no good and it is giving incorrect readings or you might have an air pocket that is hanging around the sensor.

What year is your accord and I can get you the values for checking the sensor.

Here is the description of operation and how to check the coolant tempature switches. Hope this helps, if not let me know.
