Check for obstructing engine fan debris or maybe loose electrical connectors for the engine fan. Has it been serviced recently (fan not reconnected properly)?

That message is specific to the fans on top of the engine. Common causes are electrical connector loose or not securely connected, or failure of one of the fan motors. Easy to determine. Easy to remedy, and should be warranty if the fan motor has to be replaced. Have seen this a bunch of times where one of the electrical connectors isn't seated properly after the fans are removed to service engine.....

For future reference: it appears this problem with the fans is due to corrosion in the fan side connector, between the crimp pin and wire.
Pins can be replaced or soldered to resolve.
