    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Having hot wired my fans to stay on constantly, i drove the car with the laptop connected to view the temp. Still reaching 112 - 114 c . This means either my thermostat is locked 'closed' and not allowing flow, or my radiator is clogged not llowing flow or my water pump isn't running right? Do...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Yeah, if i disconnect the signal wire the fans run on the 12 v current - any idea where the signal wire goes ? Also , it has nothing to do with my AC , if there's nothing in it ? Also IMPORTANT: when checking the fan motors on the new secondhand fan rack i accodently attached the battery to the...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Tried the new fan rack - niether the ones i have or these start when the 2 thin wires are not connected (as was mentioned earlier as a safety feature). Tried new (secondhand) module - same results as my own. Tried connecting only the thin pink/brown cable (which has 12V constant) to its position...

    Got the full double fannrack with module secondhand today - gonna test it tomorrow when i get home from work. All i have to do is run two cables from the connector on the car to the new module fan rack (uninstalled) - without the two thin trigger wires connected, the fans should start right? If...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Yeap - have 12v both sides of link fuse 5 ....only module left then ? Also, when i squeeze the coolant tubes on both sides of the thermostat when cold,, the air flow can be seen in the presure tank - does that mean my thermostat is stuck on 'open' ? This would be why i don't get heat in the...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Just home from work - engine good and warm! Unplugged thin cables that go to fannmodule - turned on ignition and engine - nothing! Nada from the fans - even after messing with the AC. So you reckon fan module then? Thanks again for everything! (NB. Photo enclosed of my engine fuse box - maybe...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Cheers ! I'll try it asap! Reckon i should change the thermostat aswell then ? All the colours check out on the fan module (see enclosed photo!), just gotta see where those two fuses are in the engine fuse box! Salute! (NB. so if i try it and fans don't come on , its the module or the ECM sender ?)

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Thanks !!! Yeah, the temp has gone up to 114.5 dregrees which i have seen when on the carriage way....good to know how it works - people seem shockedwhen i tell them 111 - 114 temp. There is power to the module and the fans - both fan/motors run when direct power is sent through extra wires to...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    Any idea why my dash needle is normal and records at 82 degrees but the ECM temp and Input temp reads as 111 ? Also error reads specifically - 'Cooling Fan 1Circuit Malfunction'. If the fuses are ok, should i just change the silver box relay on the fans? (NB.have you ever heard of a temp sensor...

    Freelander 1 P0480 error code - fans not working - where is sensor and relay???

    So the fan module is the actual relay ??? The silver box beside the fan? Also - only found 2 fuses - one in the front engine fuse box and one in the drivers box - both fine - should there be more ? And does the AC situation affect the fans process signal ? Appreciated! Really - both of you (see...
