    Pump/motor whine after ignition turned off

    Mine switch off when the engine switch off but mine is KV6. should it be keep running if the engine is hot? how do I check whether the sensor is ok. I know the sensor is ok because the fan will run if engine is running and hot unless there are two separate sensors.
