You may have tripped a code when you achieved closed loop, some codes will cause the fan to run. As for it running differently when unplugging the fan, that is odd. Have you scanned for codes? Some will not trip the SES light..

Re: just dont know

How about a little basic info about the car - year, model, engine, trans and any major mods???

Do not test the language filter.

Re: just dont know

Seems to me when everything hooked up it goes into a way rich mode causing hard starts and not being able to drive with secondary fan unplugged runs fine
