Cooling fan runs ALL THE TIME! Ran the battery down twice before I caught it. Pulled fuse to stop it. Is there some sort of sensor that turns fans off and on as required? Where is it located? Thanks! KB
SOURCE: heating jaguar 1996 xj6 all works but no heat at all
due to the fact there is duel zone heating in these cars there is a heater control unit could a amplifier these tend to fail and you wont be able to get any heat a genuine unit is very expensive around $1500 but if you shop around you can get one for around $250 non genuine
then its just a matter of getting a jag tech to fit it
good luck

Overheating - Cooling Fans Inoperative - Replace Module Prior To Retailing - Service Action S932
This Service Action Applies to Vehicles That Have Not Been Retailed
Issue:
The cooling fan module on X-TYPE vehicles may fail under certain circumstances. There are various root causes but the design and quality of the printed circuit board within the cooling fan module are the most significant. The NAND gate used in the circuit is detective causing multiple failure modes, this can result in high engine temperature and overheating due to the cooling fans not operating.
A change has been implemented in production from VIN C91720. On these vehicles a 'Philips' printed circuit board has been used that has a modified voltage spike protection strategy.
Action:
To prevent customers from experiencing this issue, install the latest specification cooling fan module on 2002-03 MY X-TYPE vehicles within the above VIN range that have not been retailed.
PROCEDURE
1.
Install new cooling fan module (see Workshop Manual, JTIS CD ROM, section: 303-03, SRO 26.25.38).
Parts Information
Warranty Information:
Warranty claims should be submitted quoting S932 in place of the warranty fault code together with SRO: 26.25.38 and the relevant part number. This will result in a labor time allowance of 0.8 hours to replace the cooling fan module and payment for the part used. Should the vehicle be brought back into the workshop for this action alone to be undertaken, an additional labor time allowance of 0.1 hours can be claimed quoting SRO: 10.10.10 for drive in/drive out.
Warranty claims should be submitted quoting the information found in the table. This will result in payment of the stated time and, where applicable, parts/miscellaneous expense codes.
The options that allow for drive in/drive out may only be claimed when the vehicle has been brought in to the workshop for this action alone to be undertaken.
The SROs and parts items listed above have been included for information only, there will be no requirement to enter the parts or SROs onto the claim.
NOTE: Always perform a DDW claim search first to determine whether this service action has been performed on this vehicle.

SOURCE: xk8 Jaguar cooling fans do not come on at all.
I had the same problem on my XK8 and I figured out that due to the age, this could be a failure of the thermostat. The thermostat is a valve that is closed when engine is cool and opened when it is warm. Quite often for being old is does not operate properly and the coling liquid is being blocked in one part of the circuit. The temperatuire sensor starts the high fan mode that keeps on all time.
A way to check on that is to see the behaviour of the cooling fans. If the high cooling mode of fan only appear after a few miles nd keep on going from this point it is very lickely a problem a thermostat that has to be replaced. Just have to purchase one in any internet reseller and get your mechanical shop to replace it.
SOURCE: radiator fan won't turn off. car not overheating.
It could be the program in the ECM where it may run for a few min before it's commanded by the ECM to shut down or the other thing is the radiator fan Relay may be bad and is sticking in the close loop position and needs to be replaced. A bad Relay may get stuck in the open loop and your not going to have an cool fan working, causing overheating in stop and go traffic. Good luck and hope this helps.
