FRST Fan

I just bought a FRST but the fan stays on all the time.

Would this be the fan switch broken or something?

sounds like the last owner had temp problems and just bridged the fan to stay on constant.

Has only started doing it though mate.

Had a long drive back yesterday from RS Day and the fan was going when I parked the car. Went out this morning to go to work and turned the ignition and the fan came on striaght away.
