    Today after I parked the car and removed the key from ignition, I noticed
    that some fans were still running. The sound was from where close to the
    water tank. I then turned on the engine and shut it down again. Then the fan
    sound stopped.

    The car is 96 Honda Accord EX bought at 124000km six months ago.

    Does any one have any idea why it is happening? Thanks a lot.

    So it is normal? I thought if key is removed, every thing should be turned
    off.

    I don't know about the '96 Accord specifically, but it is common for the
    radiator fan to be wired so that it can run for some time after the
    ignition is turned off, if needed.
