Cooling fan stays running?

I don't think it is a stuck relay because the fans kick on about 10 or 15 seconds after a cold start.

Coolant level is fine. CHT looks normal.

I didn't use engineering mode but CHT started around 3.60 VDC and drops down to about 0.99 VDC after a few minutes.

On my 2014 non PP both fans run all the time but the turbo prop speed only kicks in when ac is turned on...

@metroplex, did you ever figure this out?
I've noticed that the fans on my new to me SHO are also always ON right after a cold start. Car is tuned.
Gonna check the fuse and top up the coolant...
Not sure how to check the CHT sensor (or where to find it), and no clue how to use Forscan, I'm new to Ford but do have the Torque and a few more OBDII apps.

If both of your Fans are running constantly with A/C OFF you may be able to "Troubleshoot" it by swapping out both your relays from (BJB).
It could also be a Tune issue as well!
Does it in Stock Tune ?
Feel free to start a  new post . Z  :)

I think it ended up being an error caused by flashing the ECU with the new tunes. I think what solved it was disconnecting the battery and letting it "reset" that way. My SHO started to act weird after so many reflashes, like the backup camera sometimes didn't work.

JMAN!   I would also email your tuner. I've seen a couple instances in the SHO where the table axis for fan operation do not give the intended fan speed output

It kicks the fan on after a cold start in the dead of winter even when I flashed it back to stock. Or when it was tuned, I never even touched this table. I think I had to finally pull the battery to "reset" things.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Thanks to all for the replies.
I'll try disconnecting the battery. Today I removed the fuse (number 28 I think it was, the big one in there), fans did turn off.
I do not have the 2 bar map sensor to put it back to stock, previous owner said he'll get it for me but not sure if that is going to happen. I'll have to buy one.
Not sure if the tuner will provide that type of service since I wasn't the one who bought the tunes... how does that work?
