The cooling fan (on the right side of the car) is not controlled through the ignition. It can, and does, go on (and off again) for some time after the car is turned off, especially after a summer high-speed run.
My feeling is that if either the temp sensor or the fan control module were fried (a good possibility by the sound of it) one of them might be the culprit.
