Hi all I am a new Member so go easy on me. I just purchased a 2012 Ram 1500 Sport with Hemi 5.7.The Engine light came on and the code was P0481. I took it into my mechanic and everything checked out ok. He said I may have to take to a Dodge dealer. He cleared it but a couple days later same code pops up. Just wondering if anyone has experience with this code coming up when the cooling fan is working fine?

I know this is an old post, did you find out what is wrong with it? My fan is on at cold start and never turn off. I thought the relay first, but I swap out with new relays, no luck, and I am about to swap out the TIPM. Since my Fan is on 24X7 (not really, only when my car is running). It burned out the fan motor, I had to replace the entire fan at $350. The aftermarket TIPM cost me $590.. Ouch. Wish you have a cheaper fix.
