Weird rattling sound between speaker and charging port
Hello,
Since i’ve droped my MacBook Pro mid-2012, sometimes there is a weird rattling noise between the charging port and the speaker. The noise appears if I don’t use my mac for a couple of hours and use it again. The sound goes off more or less 5 mins after I begin using it. While it is rattling, if I place the mac with the keyboard facing towards me and the screen facing down, the noise stops until I place it back normally.
The sound seems to come from here (image) :
Does anyone know what is causing this and how to fix it please?
Thx !
Is this a good question?

fYI - your image points to the LVDS connector. A wire bale flips over the end of the board connector to secure the cable connector.

So it is perhaps not cause from the fan’s bearings ? @danj

Unless its not seated properly (the wire rail is not clipped down) which would be very rare to happen. Even still if it was it doesn't have enough mass to bounce around.
Bottom line - 99% of the time it will be the fan!
