Error Codes
Does anyone know the error codes for the computer for the Dodge Ram pickup. I have a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500, 5.9L, Quad Cab.
I am getting a error code P1491 which is something with the emissions but I am not quite sure. I used my friends Code scanner to find it and he erqased the code but it came back on.
Please help if you know anything that can help me.

RE: Error Codes
I found it as:
Open or shorted condition detected in the radiator fan control relay control circuit.
I'd replace that relay. Do you have an electric fan on that truck?

RE: Error Codes
I may posted the wrong Code. I have it written down in the truck. The code scanner said something about emissions when it read the code.
Where can I find a list of the codes.
BTW Nice Truck Amanda.

RE: Error Codes
Yep P1491 is the right code. Now where is the relay I need to check and or replace.

RE: Error Codes
I fixed the problem. It was apparently a loose relay. All I did was make sure all the fuses and relays in the power box were pushed down.

RE: Error Code 1491
Error code P1491 is a fuse for condenser fan. Replace fuse and after 5 cold starts it will clear the code or take off neg battery cable for a few min. to clear
Good luck
