Hi am after some advice I have a fault code on 15 plate 1.5dci showing as P1481 would anyone know what this is as looked on all sites with no joy.

Error Code P1481 is set when the PCM (powertrain control module, also known as ECM or engine control module in other vehicle makes) detects the radiator fan is not spinning as fast as commanded. The PCM regulates the speed of the fan, varying the voltage and ground to it. When the PCM sets the fan to spin at a certain RPM, and the fan spins lower than what the PCM commands, the code will be set.

Many thanks, I'm assuming it's the fan then that's faulty or the ECM.  Will get someone to investigate, as been told it could be a few things, from O2 sensors to exhaust actulator.
