Question e fan stuck on... dangit!

just started doing this after 1 year of working properly. always on when the truck is running whether hot or cold. It's a JLP setup. wondering if it's the sending unit stuck on, or if it could be a bad relay. Also, there's a little silver electrical component under the relays that I don't know what it is.

Any ideas?

Bueler, anyone, Bueler??

check it out

undo the sensor wire and see if it stays on. Simple. Eiter that or just put a continuity tester on the sensor and see if it's grounding all the time. If it is, then the sensor is no good. If it's not , then your know the relay is sticking.

Good luck.
