2015 Fiesta fan problems

Hi everyone, I'm new to all this but I seem to be having trouble with the fan (located in the engine bay) of my fiesta, any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is that the fan always runs at top speed when I start the car up until I turn the engine off... I have replaced the fuse and the fast fan relay and neither has fixed the problem.

 

Thank you in advance for any replys

    Does the temperature gauge work correctly on the dash?

    Have you got the air conditioning switched on?

    The temp gauge works as it should and no a/c on

    Ok, in that case I think it'll probably be a fault with the fan module (if fitted) or a wire shorted out.

    After further thought, I don't think there will be a fan module on that car.  Just a basic resistor at the bottom corner of the cowling.

    You can unplug both plugs to see if they are damp or corroded inside.  One directly on the fan motor.  And the other on the resistor just outside of the fan itself.  The plugs may have a small tab or button that needs to be pushed or pulled to release them.

    The cowling is just the large rectangular plastic sheet that the fan is mounted on.

     

    This is one from a 1.0 EcoBoost, showing the resistor plug on the bottom left hand corner and fan plug right in the middle.

    And this is one from a diesel, showing the square fan module bottom centre instead of the basic resistor shown above.

    Hi, I'm back, so we have changed the resistor and the heater blower resistor and nothing has changed its still going at top speed everythime the engine is on, I'm thinking it definitely must be a wire problem as I think we are out of options unless anyone has any other ideas please 🙏
