There are two answers to that question, depending on the situation:
1. If an electric motor (fan motor) has an internal wiring problem or faulty bearings it can result in an excessive current draw.
2. It takes a lot of energy to move air and depending on the size of the fan motor it may just be designed to move a lot of air and of course that would require a large motor.
Pick whichever answer best fits your situation.

88 olds cutlass overheats while idling?
Electric Fan is not kickin on at proper temp, or the motor in the fan is bad. Unhook the harness, and there are 4 bolts hold the electric fan to the radiator, remove those in each corner of the electric fan, pull out through the top, watch the radiator. Pull out, remove the screws holding the motor in, pull out, replace, and follow the steps in reverse to fix. I've had 4 of these cars, and they are prone to always go out. cost me 15 new at an auto parts store. Thanks.

When stopped the temperature gauge goes up to near high?
There is a good chance that your radiator cooling fan is not working properly. Some vehicles have a mechanical clutch that causes the radiator fan to operate when the vehicle is stopped or at low speeds. These clutches can wear out and need replacement. Other vehicles have an electric radiator fan that is controlled by a thermostat placed somewhere in the vehicle's engine coolant flow. Electric fans can malfunction and not pull enough air through the radiator to keep it properly cooled. The electric cooling fan's thermostat can go bad too.
Are there two coolant temperature sensors on 1990 Crown Victoria?
If you have an electric fan, plus the clutch fan, then the answer is yes. The first sensor will give you the engine temp. The 2nd sensor, when the engine heats up more, will open the connection to start the electric fan. If the gauge works on the dash, temp. and all is normal, but the electric fan does not come on, then replace the sensor for the fan. Just follow the wire to its location. If you have a/c , as soon as you put it on, the electric fan will start. If it does not, then check for a power loss at the fan, fuse, or just have to replace the fan. Just pull the wire harness off the sensor, jump the 2 wires, fan should start.
