    The fan should run all the time when Air con is switched on, other than that, it's possibly a faulty thermo switch, the one on the radiator.

    Sorry, thinking about this some more, if you disconnect the thermoswitch, does the fan still run? If so it can't be the switch, would probably be a relay problem.
