Just changed the fuse box on my 2015 Trax because it was all corroded. Now, the cooling fans won't stop running, even after I turn off the engine! The temperature readings look okay. Has anyone else had this happen?
 
@streetsmarttrax1022 actually it's a common problem after replacing a fuse box, especially if it was badly corroded.

The most likely culprit is a stuck cooling fan relay. The original corrosion might have damaged the relay itself, and the new fuse box is just providing power to it. Try pulling and reseating the fan relay, or swapping it with a known good one, to see if the fans shut off
 
Yeah if the fan control module or relays werent properly reset or connected after replacing the fuse box. @ClassicThrottle is right, and sometimes disconnecting the battery for a few minutes can reset the fan controls and stop them from running continuously.
