My 9010 started making a weird pulsing noise which I tracked down to the fan. Like it was trying to start but couldn't. I've never given the fan any thought before, does it run all the time? It's just two wires off the motherboard (which weren't pulsing per my scope) but these go to some kind of fan sending unit which feeds 4 wires to the physical fan. Is this some kind of temperature control? The fan blades didn't spin easily, quite a bit of resistance so I was assuming the fan itself was the problem rather than the sending unit. I have the model# specs for the fan so I'll look for a replacement but that might be challenging, replacing just the fan part and connecting to the existing grey sending unit may be another option. I couldn't find any previous mention of this in the archives, curious if anyone has been here before? Thanks!

I honestly haven't looked at it, so I can't comment on the wiring situation. But on the fan itself, is it the type you can peel the label back exposing the end of the bearing or bushing, and put a drop or two of light oil in the cavity to re-hydrate and free things up, giveing it some new life? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Jones" <tony@tonyjones.com> To: "Technical Tools Mail List" <techtoolslist@flippers.com> Sent: Thursday, July 14, 2016 12:24:00 PM Subject: [Techtoolslist] 9010 fan question My 9010 started making a weird pulsing noise which I tracked down to the fan.

Tony Depending the fan design there may be a removable rubber seal under the fan label (if in the middle of the fan). I peel back the label, remove the seal and then put a couple of drops of synthetic motor oil (around 20W) and let it soak in a while then spin the fan manually back and forth to work the it back into the bushings. Then seal it back up.
Usually works for years afterwards...
