Well i made a thread awhile back about my radiator fans staying on all the time. Ive tried everything to fix them and couldnt so i was wondering if it would be a good idea to put a switch so i can turn them on and off manually. If so how would i do it, what would i need and is it hard??

On all the time when the car is on, or all the time even with the key off?

Just when the car is on. I tried changing the temp sensor, all 3 fan relays and even the fans themselfs. I havent tried the temp sender yet though, i dunno if that has to do with the fans.
