3rd Generation Help Radiator Fans won't cut off???

Well I don't know how it happen, but everytime I turn over the ignition, but I don't crank the engine up it comes on. I not complaining about it much its a big power drain. I don't know if it might be come a problem in the future, so should I leave it alone or try and fix it. All of this happened when I was installing reverse gauge, but I haven't wire it up yet do to that problem and the needle getting stuck. That problem I've already fixed... My main problem is with the radiator fans!!

Check the coolant fan switch, it may be disconnected or open.

N.E.O.

where is that on a Gen3 Camry?

Isn't that at the bottom of the fans? The fans work, but it stays on all the time. I don't know what caused it, and my temp gauge works just fine

5sfe should be on the thermostat housing below the alternator. Temp gauge use a different sensor, this one is a switch, it opens up when it gets up to somewhere around 191 degree F.
