could be a bad ecm, also what happens when you first turn the key on,just to the on position? should get a quick flash of the ses light and then it should stay solid.

had a similar issue with mine. be sure to watch the codes flash for a period of time. I was always told that it would flash 12, the stored codes, then 12 again but that's not what happened on mine

ok, that sounds like limp home mode. Or field service mode. Could be a bad chip. Light does blink quickly and then turn solid?

fan still running all the time?

Re: Any reason why my SES light staays on
 
Yes so I looked at the fan and noticed a red wire coming from fan harness so I think someone wired the fan to stay on all the time...I did noticed on my ecm harness a Orange wire that looks as it has slipped out the ecm connector but I don't wanna try tobplug it up to anything and cause more problems..

orange wires at your ecm are fuel related.
