I tried this on my HP laptop in the beginning of 2019 using 20W-50 synthetic motor oil. The laptop fan has been working fine for the last 4 years with nearly daily use. I also added the same oil on a project with a cheap fan that's running 24/7 year round since November 2020, the fan still spins flawlessly. I realized I get good results with heavy full-synthetic engine oils with 20W-50 spec.

You deserve a like bro. You literally saved me from draining all the money for the fans. They said it can't be fixed and they were charging 50$ for a new fan...
Thanks to you my laptop fan has finally stopped grinding. I can't order it locally because the sellers charged way too much and aliexpress is banned in my country. Thankfully your method works (although shaving the plastic is a bit scary) and I used sewing machine oil instead of motor oil.

Thank you so much for this video. This helped me fix my Asus vivobook 15 X512DA fan that was annoying me for over a year. I had already taken it out and cleaned the dust multiple times, reapplied the thermal paste on the CPU thinking the fan was having to overwork due to high CPU temps but nothing helped. All it took was 2 drops of motor oil in the fan, cleaning it out a few times like you said, and voila!

So I have popped out the backplates of my old fans since they were unfixable and they were barely compatible with my new shipped fans (the parts you cut off with blade does not fully fit) so I just taped the backplates with electrical tape (only taped 2 major pieces unlike your 5-6 way). The backplates were kind of bent as cutting the connecting bits off didn't occur to me, so I have bent them back into their own shape. I have checked them multiple times to see if there were any noticable gaps and put it back together. The fans work fine but I wonder if my method was safe in the long run. What do you think?

Hey my laptop fan spins but not fast enough to liberate the heat and the underside of the laptop seems like there is no way for the fan to take in the air. The fan also makes noises Does anyone knows what i can to? do?
so just for knowledge, can we not use (for cleaning out dirt inside) wd 40 or some other alcohol solution with aerosol. it should clean instantly and dry another second. then we can lubricate with oil. my only concern is that the spillage from aersol spary might fall into the copper wiring and its circuits, would that damage the fan? or can we clean it with more aerosol and air pumping? my gaming laptop fan is having problems it tried wd 40 its not improving. fianlly found this video and now i know wd 40 is not for lubricating. and THANKS A ton for this detailed video.
These types of blowers, which can only be opened if you cut the plastic that holds the piece with the blade, are designed so there is no way to maintain them. It's a real pain. My notebook's blower is the same type and to be able to disassemble it whenever I want without using tape to close it, I took 4 microscrews and melted the plastic to create the threads for the screws. It's like something from the factory now. I just use white glue between the parts to prevent air leakage.

Keep in mind this is only helpful for certain types of bearings, like sleeve bearings which I'm fairly sure this is. Also the shaft on some are secured with a snap ring which can be very carefully removed. If the shaft is worn down or there's a lot of play in the bearing, there's not much that can be done. Be sure to use an oil that isn't too thick and cleaning it really well is critical. Also, you can simply bend up metal tabs using a blade instead of cutting them off.
I used WD 40 and its much smoother already. But I accidentally used too much and it went on the copper and on the electrical part. Do you think its still safe to install it back? Is it going to explode if the oil contact with heated electrical component?
@@richardmamaril4143 di-electric grease that is not conductive is a decent grease to use, but maybe the BEST would be some kind of silicone grease because it will never dry out and it won't collect dust. Normal greases and oils collect dirt and get gunky, but not silicone lubes. Just use it very sparingly, a drop or two, once you get it on something, it's really hard to clean it up because it really doesn't stick to anything. RC hobby shops have silicon oil/lube for bearings, but you might find something more specific for fans on the net.

Hello, what can I do if my motherboard for the fan is broken. How did i get this conclusion? After cleaning my fan (which still works), my wifi became crazy and then I reopened, and fixed my wifi cables. Afterwards my fan died. I tried cleaning with isopropyl alcohol for the cable and connector and waited for it to fully dry and the fan still died. Ordered a new spare part, and even that one is dead. :((
I once asked on the forum about removing the fan, but they told me that it cannot be removed, because it is secured on the back side with a retaining ring, and removing the impeller can shift the balancing, but in fact, after watching your video instructions, I doubt their words. In your experience, have there been fans that cannot be disassembled or are they all subject to disassembly?

hey so this was pretty dumb of me to do in retro spective as im not familiar with such oil brands but , i ended up using wd-40 despite what u said in the video , will this be causing a fire hazard for my laptop or just break the fan in general ? should i be concerned and just buy a new one as i did add a lot ( by accident ) , would be helpful if u responded quick , this is a stupid mistake on my end but i'd like to be know why using wd-40 is such a bad thing
Wd-40 is not a lubricant. It's a water displacer. If you're lucky it liquified the oil that's in there and kept it there. I recommend soaking up as much as you can. It should be ok after that, but I recommend adding oil still.
No problem. If you haven't already, please like and subscribe so others can find my videos and possibly consider watching a few others and commenting to get the algorithm to recommend my channel. Thanks!
Do Not Use WD-40, it is not a lubricant, it actually breaks up greases and oils. One of the BEST lubricants you can get is some kind of silicone grease or silicone oil. It will never dry up, and it doesn't collect dust and dirt like normal oils and greases. But use it sparingly (a drop or two) because it doesn't take much and it's pretty hard to clean up since it doesn't stick to much of anything (just wait till you go to wash your hands and your fingers are still slick after 5 washes). RC Hobby shops have silicon oil for bearings, but you might be able to find something more specific (slightly thicker) for fan bushings on the internet.
Bro please reply,,,, 🙏🏻😭🙏🏻😭🙏🏻 My laptop is a Asus tuf a 15 fa506iv It started grinding noise 3 months ago and I got replacement for it yesterday and I did the replacement,, but today,, again it started the same grinding noise😢 But surprisingly whenever I turn my laptop upside down,, it stops the noise but it does the grinding noise normally 😢 what should I do?? And it's the cpu fan,, I don't have money for another fan replacement too. I don't know what to do helpppp please 😢
Many thanks. It worked and saved me 60$ for a new FAN (aliexpress) or 250 from HP. It's shame, that one cannot open/close the FAN without cutting the parts.. It's just all foking HP (and others) strategy to charge one for shitload of money to repair an easy thing...

@tkm7d WD-40 isn't a good lubricant. It's meant to displace water, not act as a permanent grease. Using something like sewing machine oil or like a hair trimmer oil will work much better, or ask someone to pull the dipstick from their car and get a drop. Lol
Btw buddy i think your oil isnt clear, it has that brown olive hue to start with, it was already thet oil colour the 3rd time you went through, the rest 10 attempts were not doing anything :P

2:40 on my Lenovo Legion 5 model the ring area is very small and there is no way to press on it. Can I gently press the blades from the back side? will it be safe?
You'll want to attempt something like this ruclips.net/video/l4o_-E6-z3o/видео.html
@@ItsBinhRepairedthanks, I'll try this. but, in your experience, did you have to press on the fan blades with your hands to remove it?
You have to be careful with the blades. They're fragile.

Keep in mind this is only helpful for certain types of bearings, like sleeve bearings which I'm fairly sure this is. Also the shaft on some are secured with a snap ring which can be very carefully removed. If the shaft is worn down or there's a lot of play in the bearing, there's not much that can be done. Be sure to use an oil that isn't too thick and cleaning it really well is critical. Also, you can simply bend up metal tabs using a blade instead of cutting them off.
This is what you want Fan Repair: ruclips.net/p/PLSSiYX-ta7aqqxfDWDQh-B6Az4ZgDI459
bike chain oil works?
I would assume so, but might be too thick.
I used WD 40 and its much smoother already. But I accidentally used too much and it went on the copper and on the electrical part. Do you think its still safe to install it back? Is it going to explode if the oil contact with heated electrical component?
WD40 is not a lubricant and will just go bad again in a few days. Use a grease. I don't know what will happen if it's flooded.
@@ItsBinhRepaired are there specific grease that we can and cant use?
@richardmamaril4143 anything designed for small fast moving parts will work. Motor oil works as well.
@@richardmamaril4143 di-electric grease that is not conductive is a decent grease to use, but maybe the BEST would be some kind of silicone grease because it will never dry out and it won't collect dust.
Normal greases and oils collect dirt and get gunky, but not silicone lubes. Just use it very sparingly, a drop or two, once you get it on something, it's really hard to clean it up because it really doesn't stick to anything. RC hobby shops have silicon oil/lube for bearings, but you might find something more specific for fans on the net.
Thanks
I don't have access to any lubricant atm other than WD-40, will it damage the fan or will it be good enough?
WD-40 is not a lubricant. It removes lubricants.

Do you think if the fan is rattling it's too late?

try with more density oil
Yup
Hello, what can I do if my motherboard for the fan is broken. How did i get this conclusion? After cleaning my fan (which still works), my wifi became crazy and then I reopened, and fixed my wifi cables. Afterwards my fan died. I tried cleaning with isopropyl alcohol for the cable and connector and waited for it to fully dry and the fan still died. Ordered a new spare part, and even that one is dead. :((
Sounds like you might have damaged the connector or your computer isn't getting hot enough for the fans to turn on.
What oil did you add?
Just synthetic motor oil from my car. 5w-30, but any oil meant to lubricate moving parts will work. Don't use wd40!

I once asked on the forum about removing the fan, but they told me that it cannot be removed, because it is secured on the back side with a retaining ring, and removing the impeller can shift the balancing, but in fact, after watching your video instructions, I doubt their words. In your experience, have there been fans that cannot be disassembled or are they all subject to disassembly?
Sometimes the mechanism that holds it in place is so strong three shaft breaks from the propellers, but it's pretty rare.
What do you do with a fan that can't be popped out?

hey so this was pretty dumb of me to do in retro spective as im not familiar with such oil brands but , i ended up using wd-40 despite what u said in the video , will this be causing a fire hazard for my laptop or just break the fan in general ? should i be concerned and just buy a new one as i did add a lot ( by accident ) , would be helpful if u responded quick , this is a stupid mistake on my end but i'd like to be know why using wd-40 is such a bad thing
Wd-40 is not a lubricant. It's a water displacer. If you're lucky it liquified the oil that's in there and kept it there. I recommend soaking up as much as you can. It should be ok after that, but I recommend adding oil still.
@@ItsBinhRepaired will do , still having the same issues as before as well , ill replace it with proper oil

Do Not Use WD-40, it is not a lubricant, it actually breaks up greases and oils.
One of the BEST lubricants you can get is some kind of silicone grease or silicone oil. It will never dry up, and it doesn't collect dust and dirt like normal oils and greases. But use it sparingly (a drop or two) because it doesn't take much and it's pretty hard to clean up since it doesn't stick to much of anything (just wait till you go to wash your hands and your fingers are still slick after 5 washes).
RC Hobby shops have silicon oil for bearings, but you might be able to find something more specific (slightly thicker) for fan bushings on the internet.
Yup!
Graphite is the best dry lubricant

@@ItsBinhRepaired it is necessary if the board is really dirty and too much oil. But depends per individual if they want to. But its a good choice.
