T43p Cooling Fan Replacement

Hi all,
Have a noisey cooling fan on my T43p-2686-DHU.  So, have puchased from Lenovo part 26R9074 "long fan 24".
Before, I open my Thinkpad for the first time.  Was wondering if someone has instructions on how to do this repair, pointer to pitfalls, or comments.
Thanks in advance,
Atul

this manual will show all the steps involved. The technicians at depot also follow this manual for most repair processes.
Fan replacement is fairly straight forward.

  • Cooling fan is not working - How to disasemble Satellite L850

    How do you strip a Satellite L850 so as to get to the cooling fan and replace it. The cooling fan became noisy then stopped working and now the laptop is shutting down as it gets too hot.
    It is out of Warranty now as well.

    Hi
    Cooling fan replacement is pretty complicated procedure. Whole notebook must be disassembled and, as you probably know, it should be done by authorized personal only.
    Fact is that notebook disassembling procedure must be done by specific order to avoid some damage. Many plastic parts have small plastic holders and if you dont know how to remove certain part can be broken. The whole disassembling procedure is described in maintenance manuals but this document is not a public document and cannot be downloaded.
    What to say at this point? You can try to disassemble your machine but you will do this on your own risk. If you dont have experience with this I think it is not so good idea.
    Do you know someone who can help you with this?

  • Had fan replaced. Now no sound.

    I recently had the cooling fan replaced. Now I have no sound. I have tested the hardware and it appears that each stereo channel responds during the test but no sound is heard. I am running Win 7 Pro (64 bit).

    The built-in speaker cable is very easy to crimp or even forget about when putting the iBook back together. This is usually a multi-strand multi-colored cable snaking along the left side of the computer above the top shield, a portion of which can be seen when the keyboard is removed. Check to see that the cable is securely connected (and still in one piece) and you should be home free.

  • What is the typical cost of replacing the cooling fan the laptop is HP Pavillion DV6 6165tx.

    What is the typical cost of replacing the cooling fan in a
    laptop computer ? (In India in Indian Rupees)?
    The laptop is HP Pavillion DV6 6165tx. The cost means
    fan cost plus labour charges.

    Hi,
    You should know this better than us. Normally part is around $40 (more or less) and labour can be $50 to $200. I would charge this for $400 (minimum) or free.

My question is where can I find replacement cooling fans for this product?

  • How to Replace cooling fan HP Pavilion g7-1139

    Need information on how to replace the cooling fan on my Pavilion g7-1139 series Laptop please .

    View Solution.

    Hi, Rick:
    It appears that the manual for the g7-1300 series would also pertain to yours...same hardware specs...
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=5214430&
    There is no manual linked to your notebook's support page, and the one for the g7-1139 is for older hardware (1st generation core processors).

  • G6 1c58ca laptop want to replace cooling fan and copper part

    i have probelm with cooling fan being really loud and making way too much vibration that actually numbs my hands while using wireless keyboard on same desk. so, i have taken apart the laptop to clean the cooling fan area with compressed air, and assembled it again, and ran the laptop.
    a littble improvement but still same problem.
    so i came to comclusion that the hardware part itself is the problem and i want to replace it.
    so my question is where can i find or buy the cooling fan and copper colored line that is connected to cooling fan?

    looked at amazon but they only had coolingfan part not the copper colored line.

  • Qosmio X500-11Q - How to replace cooling fans?

    Hi,
    I'd to know if i can replace processor fan. It makes a lot of noise, and overheating.
    Any reference or tips please ?

    Hey buddy.
    In order to get access to the cooling modules, the whole notebook needs to be disassembled. :(
    This is very tricky procedure since there are too many screws and parts which need to be removed.
    I didnt find any disassembling manuals for download on the Toshiba European driver page I assume such docs are accessible for technicians only so I would no recommend trying to disassemble the notebook without having such guides.
    Are you sure that your cooling module is faulty? Maybe there is dust and debris which affects the cooling fan functionality use compressed air spray which would helps to remove the dust in my case it helped

  • I need to replace my cooling fans

    Hi,
    Can anyone give me some advice on this? I want to replace all of my original cooling fans with the best cooling and quietest available. I would like to hear from anyone whos has done this with success. All help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    I recently silenced my fw800.
    The trick is to run the PSU fans on 5 Volt, rather than just replace them. On 5 Volts, they should not make too much noise. Mine are still somewhat loud, and I suspect they're worn out. I'm about to swap them for ADDA fans, which I hear are more silent.
    I'll run those on 7 Volts, because they're probably too weak to start on 5 Volts.
    Of course, this will decrease airflow through the PSU, so you'll have to give it cooler air. Instead of having it suck in 110°F air from inside the case, I've removed the front speaker, built a cardboard channel, so the PSU will get cold, room temperature air ONLY!
    Last thing up, you must install a PCI slot fan, because the PSU no longer provides global air output of the case.
    Additionally, you might replace the 120 mm fan if you'd like, but the original fan (the Papst one) isn't that loud, actually.

  • Cooling fans constantly run @ full speed after replacing the upper CPU??

    After replacing the upper CPU on a Power Mac G5 (June 2004), Dual 1.8Ghz PowerPC, model M9454LL/A, all the cooling fans constantly run at full speed. All other operations are normal.
    I've read, "...after replacing or switching CPU locations the Logic Board doesn't properly recognize the CPU's in their new location and a "Thermal Calibration" is needed". Could a "Thermal Calibration" possibly correct the constant full fan speed issue?
    What software would be required?

    Hi-
    Could a "Thermal Calibration" possibly correct the constant full fan speed issue?
    Yes.
    What software would be required?
    The Apple Service Diagnostic disc (ASD) of the proper version for your machine.
    Call an authorized Apple service provider and arrange a calibration, as the disc is not readily available to individuals.

  • How many cooling fans are in 13" MacBook Pro retina?

    I just got a late 2013 13" MacBook Pro with retina display and I'm wondering how many cooling fans are in the machine. I've noticed when I use iTunes to play music/movies or use the iTunes visualizer, it gets hot. I've seen the videos on the retinas and I've notived that the 15" model  has two and I can't find any videos or pictures indicating whether the 13" has one or two. I know that the openings on the side are to bring in air and then pushes it out where the screen and the keyboard meet. I notice a lot of hot air coming out more towards the right of the machine than the left. I had a mid 2012 non-retina Pro but I had it replaced as it had too many issues and I know when I used it, it didn't get as hot when I did this stuff. I'm just making sure in case it's an issue, even thought I got this new MacBook on Monday 6/9/14. I'm also guessing it heats up faster since its a smaller machine and the components are a lot closer. And I understand that playing games or doing something that requires a lot of processing or graphics power will cause the machine to heat up since it's requiring so much from the machine. Like I said, I want to avoid having issues with this one. My last MacBook had three logic boards, two hard drives, hard drive cable, hard drive bracket, and clam shell replaced in less than a year of purchase in September 2013. When the hard drive crashed last week for no apparent reason last week, I took it to Apple on Monday this week and they finally made the choice to replace it completely and I upgraded to a retina just by paying the difference.

    This is my mac's info. I got it as a gift from australia. Initial 3 months it gave me a superb service, but recently it's having a major overheating issue,it shoots up up to 87 degrees. Is it possible that any other components are damaged somehow? Usually the temperature shoots up while I play online streamings.
