If your screen is facing you, this is the fan on the left side of the machine nearest the AirPort Express card.
In a world dominated by heat-fatigued electronics, fans rise up as heroes, providing relief in otherwise scaldingly hot conditions.
Though few in number, your 15" MacBook Pro (Model A1150) fans flourish their blades against the tyranny of heat that oppresses your computer internals. Embracing peril in sweltering conditions, this fan fights to defend your components from the unjust abuse of brutal temperatures. Replace expiring veteran fans to give your components the sweet relief they're longing for.
This left fan assembly includes the surrounding retaining metal bracket and left fan connector. The screws securing the fan to the logic board are not included with assembly.
Repair Stories
The left fan started making noise constantly.
The repair went pretty smoothly. One of the metal tabs on the case broke off so that case screw couldn't go back in and another case screw just wouldn't go back without stripping. Also, took several tries to get the top back on the case. The tabs just . . .
The computer was overheating and began making a noise.
The repair went excellently. To be honest this wasn't the first time I had had to perform surgery on this Macbook. A few years ago I had replaced the hard drive so I was already familiar with disassembling the computer and had the correct tools.

The fan in my Macbook pro was creating a lot of noise. I needed to replace it.
It went well. It was a little scary but I was successful.
Step 12 of the instructions was not as specific as I would have liked. I ultimately figured out how to do it but I was worried that I might be causing harm to my sys . . .
I replace my optical drive with a SSD.
The installation was easy, no problem.
But when I install the OS on the SSD and boot from it, I can no longer enter sleep mode. I've tried to google the problem but have found nothing about that kind of behaviour. Anyone got a suggestion?
Nope, installation was . . .
A customer left a Macbook Pro with a faulty left fan. I went to ifixit.com for ordering not for being the cheapest on the market but for ideological reasons. Help the ones helping me!
Did work great then checking the super guide at ifixit.com
Take it easy with Apple brand parts.
My right fan was dead, never showed as running when I checked istat pro. Led to my mac running hotter than it should. Figured I would replace both since I already had to open it for the one.
The only complaint was UPS delivered my fans a day late when I paid for next day air. The only difficult part . . .
My old fellow (A MBP 2006) started to be noisy. The left fan was making a sound like a blender at top speed.
The guide was incredibly helpful, the problems start when I tried to open the upper case, I broke some parts of it (Where you put the screws). Then I realized that some tapes where put on pla . . .
Damaged and noisy fan.
It took about 45 minutes. The guide was very helpful. It was kind of hard taking the keyboard on and off, but I am pretty dumb when it comes to computers. I damaged a piece putting the keyboard back on, but it doesn't affect the performance of my computer. After replacing the f . . .
