RE: IML: Radiator Fan Malfunction?

This could be a heat sensor, or a relay controlled by the heat sensor.  The
FSM on your car would help you find those two components.
I think I would start with those two parts.

It probably is the cooling fan(s) relay.  The hard part will be finding out
which relay it is.  However, - with this car, - I think there is a "relay
bank" under the hood, and the relays are all marked.
