Why the cooling fan stop when you turn car off?

When you turn your car off, the engine stops running and the water pump that circulates the coolant also stops. Without the water pump circulating coolant, the engine would quickly overheat. To prevent this from happening, the cooling fan continues to run for a short time after the engine is turned off.

The length of time that the cooling fan runs after the engine is turned off varies depending on the make and model of your car. However, it is typically only a few minutes.

There are a few reasons why the cooling fan stops after a few minutes.

- First, it is not necessary to keep the engine running at full temperature after it is turned off. In fact, it is actually better for the engine to cool down slowly.

- Second, the cooling fan can draw a significant amount of power from the battery. By stopping the cooling fan after a few minutes, the battery is conserved.

- Third, the cooling fan can make a lot of noise. By stopping the cooling fan after a few minutes, the noise level is reduced.

If your cooling fan is not stopping after a few minutes, it may be a sign of a problem with your car's cooling system. You should have your car checked by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
