Apple Hardware Test Result : 4M0T/4/40000003: HDD-1510

Text:

Hello there,
after trying many things because my screens turns black (iMac 27" - 2011) i ended running an apple hardware test & yes, i got a hardware problem, the result is : 4M0T/4/40000003: HDD-1510.
I couldn't find a proprer answer to this. It is obviously related to the hard drive itself or to the hard drive's fan. Could someone tell me what it is exactly ? So i know what to fix ...
I think it is more about the fan motor of the hard drive, to be sure of what we're talking here, it is the fan on the bottom right of the iMac ? the one under the optical drive, isn't ?
So i would just have to change that specific fan to solve the issue ?

Hello Dan,
thanks for your time, i added the picture from TG Pro. Does it help or mean something to You ?
So when you say "The hard drive fan is just under the logic board near the hard drive." it means i could simply change that fan, right ?
And could you "circle" it on a picture or something so i can be sure which one it is - i already opened my iMac but i'm not sure i see which one it is.
Can we see it on the picture below ? If yes, is it the one from the right, or from the left ?
Once again, thanks a lot for your time, have a nice day
Best Regard
