P0481 - Fan 2 Control Circuit

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2017 Lincoln Navigator, 2017 Lincoln MKZ, 2017 Lincoln MKX, 2017 Lincoln MKT, and 2017 Lincoln MKC. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
P0481 - FAN 2 CONTROL CIRCUIT

Description:  This DTC sets when the HFC output is commanded on (grounded) and excessive current draw is detected on the HFC circuit; or when the HFC circuit is commanded off and voltage is not detected on the HFC circuit. The PCM expects to detect VPWR voltage through the high speed fan control (FC) relay coil to the HFC circuit.
Possible Causes: 
  • HFC circuit open
  • HFC circuit short
  • VPWR circuit to the HFC relay open
  • Damaged HFC relay
Diagnostic Aids:  When the HFC_F PID reads YES, a concern is present. An open circuit or short to ground can only be detected when the PCM is not grounding the HFC circuit. A short to voltage can only be detected when the PCM is grounding the HFC circuit.
