IBM notebook T41 is overheating, the fan doesn t seem to be spinning, what should I do?

If you change the fan, if you change it yourself, buy a suitable fan for about 1-2 hundred, depending on the specific model.

If you go to the after-sales replacement, the price is about 5-7 hundred. Of course, maybe there are cheap ones.

If the ash is cleaned, it is cheap, and it is generally done within 100 of the repair department.

Let's do dust removal first, see how to do it.

If the fan still does not turn, only replaced, it is more expensive, within 200.

Buy a heat dissipation base, dozens of bad pieces, but the effect is not good, the appearance is also poor, the good ones are hundreds, the effect is good.

If it is out of insurance, it should be very expensive, and it will be estimated by a few hundred

This kind of fault is mostly because the fan is dirty or damaged, and it is mostly dirty, and it will be okay to send it for repair and dismantling, and if it doesn't work, you need to replace the fan.

In Beijing, I will help you to test for free to make sure, and it can be repaired on the same day.

If you are not in Beijing, it is recommended that you find a reputable and skilled repairer to help you overhaul.

The reasons why Lenovo laptop fan not turning and how to deal with it are as follows:

1. The connection between the fan and the power supply is loose, resulting in poor contact. Just plug and unplug it a few more times.

2. The fan has serious dust accumulation, and the power supply cannot be moved. Sweep the fan dust away thoroughly.

The method of cleaning the dust of the computer fan is as follows:

1. After disassembling the main machine, use a screwdriver, remove the fan, and clean up the dust with a brush or blowing a ball.

2. If you want to clean it thoroughly, you can ask a professional to help.

3. Before disassembling the host, be sure to ensure that the power supply has been completely cut off to prevent electric shock.

IBM machines should check the fan before turning it on, and if the fan is not working or the fan speed does not reach the minimum speed, it will report the fan

error, in your case, has nothing to do with battery and power supply. The fan and radiator of T41 are connected together with rivets, if there are no special tools and spare rivets, it is not recommended to disassemble, you can mark on the blades, gently dial the blades with your hands to see if there is any jamming, and then aim at the blades to blow to check the blade markings, if they are aligned to the same position every time, it means that the bearing is slightly jammed, the bearing jamming is generally caused by lack of oil and excessive dust, the T series machine fan is not easy to refuel, you can use a small syringe to add, be careful not to damage the coil when operating, The needle of the syringe should always be aimed at the bearing part, and the oil should not be added too much, as too much will overflow everywhere and pollute the motherboard, resulting in ash absorption and affecting the insulation of the motherboard. It is recommended to use sewing machine oil (do not use cooking oil at home, cooking oil has great resistance and is easy to age and deteriorate), this repair effect is general but simple to operate, of course, your hands-on ability is very strong, and the fan and radiator are disassembled and repaired.

From the situation you described, it is recommended that you check the fan power plug, the fan plug is not in good contact and will also cause a boot error (the probability of such a bad contact is random, not easy to find), your machine is more likely to be the latter, because the power socket is on the motherboard, when you wipe the power plug, the motherboard will also be forced, and the result of the force is the elimination of the original fan error.

Hopefully, you'll be able to fix your fan and continue to communicate if necessary.
