 That sensor will run the radiator fan after the car is shut off via the
 afterrun control relay if the temperature is above a certain threashold
 (pretty hot.. you won't hear the fan running unless it is REALLY hot out or
 the car has been pushed extremely hard).

I just cleaned up the connectors for this sensor on my car in hopes of curing
a fan that only runs at "terminal velocity."  Didn't help, although the car
indicates a cooler temp on the gauge, the fan still kicks on at warp speed.
