The coolant temp sensor that controls the fan is in the coolant passage on
the engine. If the thermostat is not opening all the way it will cause the
fan to run longer .
When the fans are on..... see if the air coming across the radiator is cool
after they have been running for awhile, if so you may want to replace the
thermostat.
