This one has me stumped! 2001 1.8 ce with 3spd auto, both cooling fans are on as soon as the key is in the "on" position. It doesn't matter if the ac is on or not, and everything else is working great. I have 82k on the car, completely stock, and I first noticed the problem at 66k. I checked everything that the factory manual suggested, including all the relays. Both fans seem to be running at high speed, and the current solution has been to unplug both fans for the winter(very cold here till May).
HELP!!! Anyone ever heard of this before? The toyota dealer parts department said this year has no engine coolant temperature switch???? What turns on the fans then? Factory manual shows switch under alternator at the hose connection, but none on this year.
Thanks
