I tried this on my HP laptop in the beginning of 2019 using 20W-50 synthetic motor oil. The laptop fan has been working fine for the last 4 years with nearly daily use. I also added the same oil on a project with a cheap fan that's running 24/7 year round since November 2020, the fan still spins flawlessly. I realized I get good results with heavy full-synthetic engine oils with 20W-50 spec.

Thanks to you my laptop fan has finally stopped grinding. I can't order it locally because the sellers charged way too much and aliexpress is banned in my country. Thankfully your method works (although shaving the plastic is a bit scary) and I used sewing machine oil instead of motor oil.

Thanks a lot Bro. Finally, I found someone to explain how to remove and clean this kind of laptop fans

[AbdurRahim-wmfq]

Thanks a lot. My laptop's Cooling fan works properly in this process.

Makasih banyak mas bro.. Ga jadi beli fan yg baru ternyaya ada rambut nyangkut d batangannya mantaps

[rudranilghosh]

Thanks bro, I didn't even know that you could separate the blade. Saved my laptop, as local shops all said to replace the fan, but all it needed is a good clean

[martinblazek]

Many thanks. It worked and saved me 60$ for a new FAN (aliexpress) or 250 from HP. It's shame, that one cannot open/close the FAN without cutting the parts.. It's just all foking HP (and others) strategy to charge one for shitload of money to repair an easy thing...

Do Not Use WD-40, it is not a lubricant, it actually breaks up greases and oils.

One of the BEST lubricants you can get is some kind of silicone grease or silicone oil. It will never dry up, and it doesn't collect dust and dirt like normal oils and greases. But use it sparingly (a drop or two) because it doesn't take much and it's pretty hard to clean up since it doesn't stick to much of anything (just wait till you go to wash your hands and your fingers are still slick after 5 washes).

RC Hobby shops have silicon oil for bearings, but you might be able to find something more specific (slightly thicker) for fan bushings on the internet.

Hello i have a acer aspire 5 laptop and the fan also looks the same as the one in the video will the steps be the same

[mahmoudmohammed]

I don't have access to any lubricant atm other than WD-40, will it damage the fan or will it be good enough?

[RehenaPuni]

Hey my laptop fan speed had dropped from 7000rpm to 5100rpm do you think this will help it to restore that speed?

[SliceOfLaugh]

I used WD 40 and its much smoother already. But I accidentally used too much and it went on the copper and on the electrical part. Do you think its still safe to install it back? Is it going to explode if the oil contact with heated electrical component?

[ElCapri-dn]

I think I damaged mine, the shaft with the little notch was left in the rotor 😂😂😂😂

[wolfrahmphosphoros]

why don't You use isopropyl alcohol to clean it? regards, and thank You ever so much.

[kashifzia]

Is the inside golden part supposed to spin as well

[vasy]

Was easy to clean the hole with something, because you cand do some damage to the fan

[alterdimensionmusic]

Now i regret destroying my laptop fan without watching this first😅
