I have a new northern aluminum radiator with Dual Spal fans and the adjustable controller. Have run a couple of hundred miles and now when I shut the car off the one fan keeps running and I have to disconnect the battery . I had a hose leak and sprayed off the engine compartment a week ago and am hoping I didnt wreck anything. Ideas on trouble shooting?

I dont know much about wiring in general so I unplugged the relay with the fan running( engine and key off )and no change. Still had to disconnect the battery. The fans come on at the right temp but the one keeps running after shutting the engine off. https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2008/05/confused-1.gif
Doing some research on the controller and it looks as if Spal is coming out with a new one in June. Is there any way to check if it is the controller for sure that is junk? This thing is only a couple of hundred miles old. It just seems odd that only one fan stays on forever. If I do have to buy a new one i hope the dimensions and mounting are the same and it looks as of right now they are out of stock. It is pretty good that they can sell a piece of crap and then come out with an updated one and you have to shell out more money. Oh well gas is $4.00 here so it would not see the road a bunch anyway.
