Sounds like the coolant temperature sensor is unplugged. When the computer loses the signal from the coolant temperature sensor it assumes the engine is overheating. The air conditioning is shut down and the radiator cooling fans come on at high speed. Hope that helps! Jim

    Electric cooling fans will not shut off. Do not have a fuse layout either. Any info would be great.
