fan stays on acc even when engine is cold

hi guys i have a 93 with a pfc and was just going to listen to the radio one day, even though i havent started the car in two days, and on the acc position the fans come on and then when i turn it to the on position they come off, and back to acc on again everything runs fine just wondering if anyone has had this happen or knows how to fix it? thanks the car can be sitting for days and as soon as i put the key to acc it turns the fans on, also my door light switch is funny the ignition lamp lights up when the door is open but the domes wont work, i have already replaced all the door switches?

It sounds like a duh question but for the dome light do you have the switch on "door" or "off"? If it's "off" then it won't turn on when you open the door.

sounds like someone wired the fans to be on when the key is in ACC...

the fans will come on again when the car has reached certain temps.

I didn't think you were dumb, it's just one of those things that people can forget about.
