An easy repair to some noisy fans

My Problem

The fans on my MacbookPro had been running constantly due to some software that seemed to need 1 CPU to run constantly to check web pages. After finally figuring out which software to trash and reducing use of the fan, the wear and tear of this bad software took its toll and eventually the fans started to periodically make a grinding noise.

My Fix

The directions from iFixit were great, the parts arrived quickly and it took about 30 minutes to complete the repair. No problems were encountered.

My Advice

Follow the directions and be careful not to strip the screws when reinstalling them
