Introdução
One of the most common issues with laptops is overheating because the cooling fan or cooling vanes are clogged with dust or the fan is not running properly. Replacing this is moderately difficult due to the fact you have to remove so much to get to it.
Use of an anti-static wrist wrap is highly recommended. Take care not to use too much force especially for the zero insertion force ribbon cables.

The motherboard can be lifted from the side and and then to the right to free the I/O port from the enclosure. Some force may be required to release the heatsink.
Can you help me out? I’m having trouble lifting up the fan. It seems to be stuck to the metal part near the vent on the side and I can’t figure out how to lift it, Any tips?
I broke my touch pad zip connecter .Then what can i do ?
If it’s the locking bar that’s broken you can sometimes wedge some packing into the connector to enable it to make a good connection with the ribbon. A proper fix would be to fit a new connector, but that would require microsoldering skills which I guess you don’t have. It’s possible you could find a repair shop that could undertake it - quite easy with the right equipment and skills. Undoubtedly the easiest thing is just to forget about the touch pad and use an external mouse instead - many people prefer it anyway.
-
-
-
Rotate the motherboard to the right and lay it down so that the copper heatsink is facing up and parallel with the bottom of the monitor.
-
In this position the last cable to the motherboard can be disconnected using the spudger to push each end out until loose enough to pull the cable completely out.
-
The motherboard can now be completely removed from the laptop enclosure.
-
-
-
Disconect the fan power cable using the spudger to push the connector out.

Fantastic guide - thanks so much!!! Mine was a little bit different than yours though:
In step 3, there’s another screw parallel to the hard drive tray screw that holds the top case to the bottom that also needs to come out
In step 13, you also need to unplug the blue and white microphone cable (near the top center screw), not in Step 16 (short wire)
Brilliant guide………….thanks so much ! My laptop kept turning its self off randomly because the fan was so clogged up with dust and fibers. Its now running so cool and problem solved. A great easy to follow idiot guide for the first timers like me. Only took about 45 mins from start to finish. Many many thanks.
