Radiator fan control relay circuit. If your truck does not have one, then it may indeed be called a condenser fan relay.

First...could be just the fuse. I think it's #39. Check your owner's manual for fuse chart.

If the fuse is blown, replace the fuse, then disconnect the neg. battery terminal for a minute or two. Then re-connect, start the car, and the light should go out.

As a Dodge code it refers to..
P1491 Secondary Switch Solenoid Circuit Malfunction.
"P1491 is for the cooling fan relay circuit. There is a seperate fan for the a/c condensor on your truck. When this code sets it is because the fuse is blown. Its fuse 39 in the box under the hood. The cause of this fuse blowing is a bad fan motor."

99 acura code p1491

Code P1491 in Honda/Acura vehicles means insufficient EGR valve lift. Note - this is not the same as 0401 for EGR low flow when you have to clean EGR passage in the intake manifold. If code 1491 is not accompanied with 0401 - that could be faulty EGR valve itself. Try to reset the code, and if it will return soon - replace EGR valve. If, however you see both codes together - cleane the manifold passage before you replacing the valve.
