Hi pals,
I have dropped my macbook where I don't remember. and it caused it's fan to make noises. it works fine, it cools the cpu around 50-60 degrees, but just has noise that runs on my nerve when I am siting in silence working with my macbook.
I went to the warranty (macforum store in the city) and they asked me to pay around 150 euro and three weeks of waiting list to change the fan! I found some videos and how-tos in youtube about how to change a macbook fan/
first of all, have anyone done this? is it easy process by a normal graduate engineering student done? I think so.
but what I was wondering is how I can get the fan part number so I can purchace the correct fan? are there any stores in europe/sweden that I could buy the fan from rather than buying it from ebay?
thank you very much in advance
P.S. model identifier is macbook5.1
