Delay in ShutDown.

The past couple of days my truck will not shut down immediately after I turn off the key. I turn off the key & all the accessories shut off but the engine will keep running for about 5 to 10 seconds. It will not do it all the time but seems to be more frequent with the hot humid weather we have had since last thursday. As a matter of fact it started to do this last thursday afternoon. Anybody got any suggestions?
It really strange to shut down & get out of the truck & the engine is still running. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

You know WB7E, you may have hit the nail on the head. I just installed an auxilery fan on my transmission cooler the week before. Mine is manual 'Off-On' control. I will check the wireing. Also, I noticed yesterday when I turned the manual swith off for the fan I did not have the problem. Will check out today. Thanks for refreshing my memory. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif

OK, Now I am wondering 'WHY'. All I did was install a fan in front of the AC Condenser & in front of the Transmission cooler & hard wire an 'OFF-ON' switch into my 'Add-on' Fuse junction box. I have other things wired into the same box & no problems when I use them. Only when I turn on the cooler fan. Hmmm, wonder what is up with that? Still confused. I drove the truck today with the fan turned off & it did not delay on shut down. I am going to run the fan tomorrow & see what happens. Very interesting. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Well today was a warm day & so I ran the truck with the cooler fan on & off. When the fan switch is ON, the truck will keep running for about 3 to 5 sec when I turn the key OFF. With the fan switch OFF the truck shuts down as it should. What I did notice, I have a lighted switch for the fan, when I turn the switch OFF the light goes out immediately. When I leave the fan switch ON & turn the truck off with the key, the lighted switch goes slowly dim & when it goes out, the truck shuts down. I have my CB & other electronics wired to the same fuse panel & they do not go slowly OFF nor do they effect the engine shut down. This is really confusing. I do not know what is causing this condition. Anybody have any ideas? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/warmsmile.gif
