It take a pulsed signal from the ECU via the purple wire, starts the fan and controls its speed.

No, the cooling fan relay and the cooling fan module are not the same. The relay is an electrical switch that controls the power to the cooling fan based on signals from the engine control unit. In contrast, the cooling fan module often includes additional components and circuitry that manage the fan's operation, including speed control and diagnostics. While they both play roles in cooling system functionality, they serve different purposes within that system.
P0480 is Cooling Fan 1 control circuit malfunction.Possible causes.- Faulty fan control relay- Fan control relay harness is open or shorted- Fan control relay circuit poor electrical connection- Faulty cooling fan 1- Fan cooling fan harness is open or shorted- Fan cooling fan circuit poor electrical connectionP0633 is SKIM key not programmed in computer.Possible Causes.- SKIM module must be programmed into ECM- SKIM module defective
check fan relay/fan relay control module
The cooling fan control module can become warm during operation, as it regulates the electrical current to the cooling fans. However, it should not be excessively hot to the touch, as overheating may indicate a malfunction or electrical issue. If the module is consistently hot, it’s advisable to have it inspected to prevent potential failure or damage to the vehicle's cooling system.
The fan control module is inside the main (larger/left) fan motor. It requires replacement of the entire fan. Your secondary fan may still work. Bench test it to confirm.
The sensor that turns it on is on the water outlet. This sensor sends information to the Power Control Module (PCM) and it in turn sends a signal to the Constant Control Relay Module (CCRM) under the intake housing which turns on the cooling fan on high or low depending on if the A/C is on.
In a Volvo 850, the fan speed control module is typically located behind the glove compartment. To access it, you may need to remove the glove compartment and its support bracket. The module is usually mounted on the blower motor housing or nearby, depending on the specific model year. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for detailed instructions and safety precautions.
The fan control module (FCM) as its is known industrially is can function as a relay or switch regulating the cooling fan operation. In some vehicles the FCM is relay between the engine control module (ECM) which turns on the fans as needed for cooling and when the air conditioning running. In other applications the FCM directly controls the cooling fans of the radiator based on temperature sensor readings. An FCM is critical component to keeping a vehicle from dangerous overheating breakdowns.
The cooling fan relay switch can be located on the back of the cooling fan motor. The relay switch should be labeled as such.
Answer:Is located right there next to the fan, on the radiator. The fan control module is inside the car, behind the glove box lid.
The high and low cooling fan relays in the 98 Ford Escortr are loacated in the CCRM (Constant Control Relay Module) which is located on the base of the drivers side strut tower underneath the air filter module. It is a small box with quite a number of wires running into it. It controls the fans, the AC compressor and the Power Control Module.
