tony59 Posted November 5, 2024 Report Share Posted November 5, 2024 I just replace the cooling fans and now they do not work. They worked before replacing them. They rattled is why i changed them. I hot wired the fans and they work. I do have a code P0480. I wiggled the plug to make sure it had connection. not sure where to go from here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted November 5, 2024 Report Share Posted November 5, 2024 Welcome. What brand of fans did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted November 6, 2024 Report Share Posted November 6, 2024 You change just the fans or the complete fan assembly? @1004ron asked you if you used Motorcraft or aftermarket because, if you change the fan assembly and use aftermarket, fans not working afterwards is a known problem. The aftermarket fan assembly connectors have been found to be wired incorrectly. (Among other factors.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The aftermarket fan assembly connectors have been found to be wired incorrectly. (Among other factors.) I figured it out. I bought the new assembly with module from Fisher auto parts . They sold me the wrong one. I needed one that is has the tow package, they sold me the one without the tow package. I put the old module on and they worked. Fisher is sending me the right one. Thanks for your help though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted November 7, 2024 Report Share Posted November 7, 2024 Best of luck with that - it will be the first reported aftermarket/3rd party one that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NzP Posted December 26, 2024 Report Share Posted December 26, 2024 Why? Is there a chip or just a simple resistor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
