1999 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN radiator?

I turned off the car and the radiator fan kept going. I had to drive the next day and the battery was dead. I jumpstarted it and went to work, samething. I stopped and the fan kept going. I had to take the fuse out. I did that twice and that same night I got home from work and it stopped finally when I shut off the car. When I drove it later on, the temperature went up and got really hot. I dont think the fan is turning on anymore and now the car is overheating. I'm a little over the miles on my next oil change, so I dont know if that matters. I was planning on doing it on Sunday. What should I do?

No oil change has nothing todo with it ....something is keeping the fan on for a reason ....it might be getting a wrong temp sensor signal causing it to think the car is running hot or you have a fan relay that is inop causing it to stay on ...if you put the fuse back in and now its running hot whatever the problem is will be easy to find ...
