95 960 Cooling fan stays on, draining battery

On our 95 960 the cooling fan stays on draining the battery. I either have to disconnect it or jump it. I've replaced the switch and the thermostat. What should I look for next? Thanks.

Sounds like your relay is sticking on. Try tapping on the relay when the fan is running and the engine is off. If the fans turns off then replace your relay.

We had the same problem when our coolant temp sensor went bad. The sensor was only a month old. I checked the temp with an obd tool and the temp reading was way off.
