Fan Controller on Logic Board?
Is the fan controller located on the logic board? Trying to fix my always on fan. Already tried all resets, firmware solutions.
Thanks -

@patricknholman I bet it's a single component along the fan connector that has failed because of liquid damage.
I'd be checking the voltage and resistance of R5660 and R5661 as well. You have to start working from the fan connector backwards to see what has failed. It will help if you post some images of your logicboard so we can see what you see. Use this guide iFixitでの質問に画像を追加する方法 for that.
Of course, like @mayer already said a fan controller software program should work as well as a work around.

Thanks much for the advice - I'll post some pics when I crack the case again.

My bets are on either the trackpad cable or I/O cable (runs on top of fan) being damaged by the liquid. Check the pins on both sides of each of these cables, if they have corrosion or are black, replace them. Check the insides of the I/O ports too for burnt pins.
If either of these are bad, the fans will start to ramp up during boot, and stay high. Sometimes the keyboard itself can cause this problem, or the trackpad; but it is most likely one of the above.

It's in the fan. Replace it. Here's how: MacBook Air 11インチ Mid 2011のファンの交換

Thanks for the rapid response. Unfortunately, it is not the fan. I have replaced it (twice). Liquid was spilled on the keyboard - I broke the computer down entirely and cleaned. All works except the fan controller.
You didn't mention the water damage. In your case, a software fix (which I seldom recommend may be in order). smcFanControl https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/23049/...
True - sorry. It was my admittedly awkward attempt to skip ahead past the various vectors I have already tried. Unfortunately, software controllers (I've tried several) all register the fan as spinning at 0 RPM, which is clearly an erroneous reading. I do appreciate the quick response -
