My Problem
The right fan was replaced a year or so ago on this 7 year old mbp ---- so the left fan went crazy!
My Fix
the only problem was that the fan connector was different than the picture. The picture shows a white connector with "wings" that are used to slide back and out. The actual fan connector is black and does NOT slide in. It rather pushes straight down into the connector receptacle. That took 15 minutes of being very careful not to get frustrated and force something. All is ok and the new fan is purring : )
My Advice
Yes, a specific picture of the A1212 fan connection and description of how it comes out and goes back in.
