Replacement fan for T60 + finding part numbers + refurbished parts

I think I need to replace my fan. It is making this pathetic little quiet, irregular buzzing (almost gurgling) sound now, and hardly any air out compared to how it used to really spin. I downloaded RealTemp to test the temperature and it gets up to 90 quite easily, and will occasionally get as high as 96.
Any chance that this is just caused by dust that needs to be cleaned out? I'm guessing that it needs more than a cleaning--that it needs an actual replacement... unfortunately my warranty just expired...
I tried to find the replacement part, but when I went here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-62741 to look for it, I couldn't find my model number 2008-B62 anywhere. When I typed it into lenovo's website, it gave me a description that says, "Original description: Based on 2008-C5U: T2500(2GHz), 1GB RAM, ..." So does that mean my model is identical to the C5x model? Can I trust that? If so then it seems that I should buy the part number 41V9932. Is my reasoning correct? Hate to buy the wrong one and brick my machine or something.
Also I see companies selling used parts on ebay for pretty cheap--compared to $50 for a new one. my guess is these are from laptops with broken screens, etc. If so then it might be safe to buy one of these used parts...right? Or do you think that is a foolish move?
Thanks very much for the help,
Rob

well lot of these parts online are refurbished, so you have no guarantee as to when it will fail on you. They could be from machines like yours, cleaned out and resold as refurb.... 50 dollars for a new fan unit isn't all that much, i think you should just get the new one.

Replacement battery for dv6113us? part #432306-001(6cell) or 446506-001(6cell) or 432307-001(12cell)

replacement battery for dv6113us? part #432306-001*(6cell) or 446506-001(6cell) or 432307-001(12cell)
I am trying to order the correct battery replacement - and that information is not on the bottom of the computer or on the lithium ion battery. I have determined the original replacement part, but when I order that part number*, it doesn't give me a place to enter quantity and does list the alternative part number. I am also wondering if I can substitute a 12 cell battery (from the model to battery listings match list).
[(VE06) EV088AA 432306-001/446506-001(6cell)] vs [(VE12) EV089AA 432307-001(12cell)]
thanks for your feedback,

Replacement fan for R6850 Cyclone PE

Hi,
You may all laugh at the noob who managed to stick his fingers into the brand new fan and break two blades off!!!!
So my question is can anyone help me source a replacement fan for this little beauty?
The fan part number is PLA09215B12H and is made by power logic.
Shame as it was whisper quiet too.
Any chance MSI might be able to provide one?
Thanks.

Replacement fan for AE2400

The CPU-fan of my AE2400 is starting to break down (making terrible noise the first few minutes after starting up).
On-line I can only find replacement fans for MSI laptops.
Can anyone please tell me where can I find a replacement fan or if there is a replacement fan from a specific laptop model I can use ?

Thank you in advance.

Gary,
Specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c02863098
Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02842278.pdf
The manual only lists fan/heat sink assembly for Intel processors with 2GB discrete graphics system & not for 1GB discrete graphics, which is present in yours.
This is your Laptop's HP part surfer link:http://partsurfer.hp.com/Search.aspx?SearchText=LW170UA
In there too, only UMA & 2GB graphics system cooling fan/heat sink assembly part numbers are listed,
Only part for 2GB discrete graphic system is listed- 666391-001 (partsurfer) or 653627-001 (manual) .
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008L30LKW?pc_redir=1408522867&robot_redir=1
But, from this thread - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware/Cooling-Fan/td-p/3475779 , spare part number for 1GB discrete graphics such as yours is listed as 666390-001.
http://partsurfer.hp.com/Search.aspx?SearchText=666390-001
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA3DY1S03962
http://m.ebay.ca/itm?itemId=221496259906
http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=390914163035
Through online stores, I could find that both are compatible with your laptop model - 666390-001 or 666391-001.
Hope this helps.

Replacement Fan for DV7-1261WM

Hey guys,
Recently the top fan on my DV7 burnt out, or went out. I've tried searching around the internet for a replacement, but I'm not really confident on some of the websites I've come across.
Heres the fan I'm talking about:
Any ideas on where I can score a replacement fan? Thanks in advance guys!
This question was solved.

I believe the part you want is number 488885-001, according to the service guide (below)
You could also try the Intel version.... 480481-001. These can be found on ebay for as little as $5. The HP parts store seems to suggest that this would also work, they are listed as a part for sale for your model.
The service manual and repair procedures can be found at http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01918142/c01918142.pdf
Unfortunately, it's a fairly complicated process to replace the fan. If you're not a techie or have experience repairing laptops, you might want to check out a HP authorized repair shop.

Replacement fan for g5 tower

where can u buy a fan for a g5 power mac tower? i cant seem to find one.

There are several after market possibilities, with the Zalman VF700 and VF900 coolers being preferred:

Hereis a how to (different graphics card):

A similar fan, the Vantec iceberq 5 would work as well.
The VGA cooler from Arctic Cooling or Vantec Iceberq 6 is an excellent option as well.

Replacement fan for srw 2048

I have a SWR 2048 switch that has started to make some noise - I suspect one of the fans is starting to go. It looks like the fans are from Sunon, 40mm x 40mm x 20mm, 3 pin, 12v.
Does anyone know the model number or a good source for a replacment fan?
Thanks

Michael, I believe this is a DC fan

Replacement fan for a G71 series

I'm trying to find a part number for the CPU fan. G71-329WM, I'm not sure if it's VM113UA or UAR.
Thanks in advance.

Those numbers are not part numbers for the CPU fun, an HP part number will end in -001. (99% of the time)
There is no manual yet posted for this model, however I found these items from e-bay.

Sometimes the only way to ID what you need is to physically take it apart and do a comparison.
When Googled, VM113UA or VM113UAR, the laptop itself come up, the battery or charger.

Replacement fans for quicksilver 2002 933Mhz

Hello There, I love my 'new' secondhand Quicksilver 2002 but I hate the noise it makes. I have emailed a firm about getting quieter fans but they want to know what size the existing fans are - can someone tell me please? Or at least how does one measure them? - as I can open the machine and have a look. Also any recommendations? Thanks

Hi-
Your fans are as follows:
Case fan 120mm x 25mm = 86 cfm 37 dba
PSU exhaust 80mm x 25mm = 38 cfm 29 dba
CPU intake 60mm x ??= 23 cfm 33.5 dba
As I have, just find a fan of the proper size, and necessary airflow, and replace as desired. Often times, the fans will come with 3 wires. The third, a yellow wire for speed controllers, which doesn't have to be connected. You can rewire your connectors, or use adapters, or solder directly- your choice.
The following has lots of different brands listed, for easy comparison:
http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=36&zenid= 3b5951b15677aeba573668e965e6d5a0
Sorry about the thickness on the CPU fan- you'll have to measure it (total thickness of fan cage), or, maybe someone else will post.
I have fans by Scythe, A.C. Ryan, Aerocool, and Arctic Cooling. All nice stuff, each much quieter than the origional.

How do i get a replacement fan for my imac

my CPU fan has recently gotten too loud for my confort and i want to replace it. Everytine I go to the Apple service request form and fill out all the answers, I get to a part where it states and there are no billable parts and gives me a number. I can't seem to continue from there. I want to do the replacement myself and don't want to send it in for repairs (long wait times)
P.S. I have APPLECARE

Try to discuss the matter with AppleCare. You can always use the online chat. Tell them your time constraints and ask them what they can do for you.

I'm thinking of changing the following fans on my machine for quieter versions as the Quicksilver is just too loud!
