Near the end of this section, right before the section about S4/S6
serpentine belt failure, there is a section entitled "RADIATOR FAN RESISTOR
PACK TESTS".    Near the end of this section is the following:
"OTHER NOTES: 5000TQ: The 2nd speed fan can also get stuck on due to the
relay contacts getting welded together, there was a service bulletin issued
about this problem. Whenever the ignition key is off the 2nd speed fan
should NOT be running. "

On my Avant, the A/C high pressure switch is bad and the 2nd speed fan runs
constantly but only when the ignition is on.
