Epson VS250 Fan Replacement

Introduction

The fan in the Epson VS250 projector helps prevent the projector from overheating. The projector has multiple components that produce heat and the fan helps cool these components down. This reduces the chance that the projector catches fire when dust particles enter. This guide will show you how to replace the fan. Before continuing with this guide, check the Air Filter guide, which is a more common cause of overheating and easier to fix. The Fan replacement guide requires more time and has a higher difficulty. This guide will require you to remove many screws when disassembling the project, and will require careful dismantling and untangling of circuitry within the projector.
