Not looking like CHT, finally broke down and took to a mechanic. He thinks its the fan module. I have a new fan ordered from amazon but probably won't get it in before I leave. Will have to finish when I get back, but will be back on to hopefully say every things good and how I fixed, Thanks again!

Thanks autom8r! I will try that cause planned on changing plugs anyway. A lot of info is pointing to it being the problem. Just to be sure , your referring to the CHT Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor right?

I am having the same problem with the 1 fan (drivers side) going full out all the time, but this is a brand new fan I ordered and installed per the instructions I got here. The factory fan stopped coming on and car was overheating when at a standstill. So does this mean the new fan I just bought (TYC) is bad?? I was told this was a good brand. Please any help would be appreciated. I am not very familiar with working on cars, but I am an electrician and pretty mechanically inclined. Again thanks for any help

Lesson learned, don't buy a TYC cooling fan assembly. After the mechanic said that he thought the module went bad and I ordered the other fan, thought for sure would be an easy swap of modules. Hooked up the new fan and it worked for bout 5 min then started doing same thing, not shutting off. At this point thought for sure something else must be causing this, whats chances of getting 2 brand new fans that are bad??? Mechanic said was module again. I was skeptical but I ended up getting a VDO brand from autostore. was twice as much at $300 but works perfectly now. Will never buy TYC again. Could have been done along time ago if bought the better fan, and wouldn't have had to pay mechanic.
