Hyundai Getz - Radiator fan comes on with cold engine 2007 Getz C - ABN

Noticed that the radiator fan on my 2007 Getz CRTD CDX+ keeps coming on and off even though the engine is not hot, even before the engine tempertaure light goes out. Top, bottom hose's nor the radiator never get warm.

The fan does cycle on and off but since the radiator never gets hot can't see that the fan goes off due to the normal cooling effect.

Today dispite being at its coldest the fan never went off.

Any ideas/advice please

The stat for the the fan is probably faulty or if its controled by the ecu this could also be faulty.Either way it needs a coat of looking at, is it not still under Hyundai warranty.

Unfortunatly not under warranty.

Have tried seraching the net but can't find out what controls the fan, so don't know whether its a temperature switch or ecu controled.

Might be a daft question at this time of year, is the aircon turned off?
If aircon/climate control were turned on the fan would cycle as described.
