I've got a 97 Civic that is undoubtedly the best car ever made. I have beat the hell outta the exterior, but I have kept up with maintenance religiously. Anyways, I just moved to Chicago during the middle of an abnormally brutal winter. I had the car winterized before I left, and it has done great (outside of a frozen keyhole and some wiper problems). However, I noticed that when I turned the car off today, the cooling fan (I guess that's what it is. My car knowledge is lacking) wouldn't turn off. It eventually drained the battery, and for a quick fix, I unplugged the fan, got a jump, and got the home. I plugged the fan back in, and drove it around the block, and and the fan still remains on when I turn off the ignition. My dad thinks it has something to do with the solenoid switch. Having just moved, I don't have a trusted Mechanic just yet, so I need help bad. Any ideas?
