Introduction
Use this guide to remove the fans on the left side (from the front) of the InFocus IN3114 projector.
Fans are used to keep devices cool. As computer parts are used, they emit heat. Keeping fans clean, unobstructed, and operable are critical to maintaining a device long-term.
Fans may be broken, obstructed, stuck, or unplugged. More often than not, removing the fans, cleaning them, and replacing the fans is sufficient restoration.
