need help, electric fan won't shut off!

I have a recently installed Hayden 3710 electric fan and Adjustable
Thermostat control which up until recently worked great. Now it won't stop
running, even after the engine is completely cold. I do have a manual switch
wired in the cab for it, but it is not on and the leads to the switch are not
touching each other. I also tried adjusting the settings on the thermostat
controil, nothing. Fan keeps running. I finally pulled the fuse out of it
late last night after it would not shut off, and popped the fuse in this
morning after it sat all night, fan started running...

Any suggestions on what to look for? I did get the engine bay coated with a
lot of trail dust after wheeling last weekend,but not sure if that would
affect anything, after all, problem just started yesterday...
