I was told my issue is due to a Bad Solar Sensor on the back of the Rear view mirror. they saw the codes thrown for bad Solar -rain-light sensor.

I am still not convince that a Solar sensor can cause AUX Cooling FAN to run all the time.. They saying the sensor sense the Solar from SUN and think that FAN need to be turned ON when AC is ON.

Now looking for a DIY if I can change it myself.
