The code is for for fan relay control circuit so that wouldn't be a bad coolant temp sensor. Its a problem in the fan circuit. The first thing they have you do for that code is command the fan on with a scan tool. Which I doubt you have a high end scan tool that can do that?I have seen bad relays on those vans it could be a lot of different things. Have you checked fuses yet?Also do you have a multi meter to do some testing?
