The cooling fans on my Edge stopped working. A friend of a friend looked at it and after testing found that the module was working right on the fan assembly. It was cheaper just to buy a new fan assembly with the module on it. It is TYC brand assembly which I was told was a good brand. After installing it I plugged it in and the driver side fan is going full speed and won't shut off unless unplugged or fuses taken out. Funny thing is that I have the tow package, so theres 2 fuses, either one of them in will turn the fan on. The other fan never comes on. Did I get a bad fan or could it be something else?

The fan isn't compatible with yours probably the original module controls both fans so adding one with it's own module will let fan run continually because it thinks it's overheating or the module is not the correct one for you car, I would try a factory unit.
