Stock cooling fans stuck on

Hi guys

my 85 Trans Am (5.0TPI) has got the fans stuck on.

they start to run as soon as the car is running and never switch off, can someone show me which sensor I need to change to rectify it,

the temp gauge works fine and the car isnt over heating.

The previous owner has removed the AC compressor and piping, would this have an effect on it? if so how can i get around this issue

many Thanks

Jim

The plug in this post, https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/cool...ml#post5886885 , the blue wire need to be grounded or, if the plug is still there, put a jumper in it.

Car was originally single fan btw
