Default Electric fan

I was washing my car rightnow when the electric fan turned on. Its never happened before.
The car hasnt been driven in a week or so so I know its not trying to cool the motor down.
It turns off for a few seconds then off... still doing it rightnow.

Without a key in the ignition or...? The onyl thing I can offer is makign sure your engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT) has been replaced with the recall. It's a cheap part (~$7) and an easy DIY. I did mine on my own. My fan was running on high as soon as I started the car and searched to find the ECT was the culprit. Worked fine after.

The car was off, no keys in the ignition, alarm on... everything.

Yeah, I read that you need to change those at about 80-90K
