Since you can hear noise in the fan or coming from the fan, I would say you need to take it off. I do not know how old your tv is but I can tell you that quiet fans in lcd as well as plasma tvs the size of yours are notorious for collecting lint and dust from the air as they try to cool the heat sunk components on your printed circuit boards and power supply. I would first take the back off and be sure to unplug it first. If you are standing on carpet, be sure to touch the frame once it is open so you can discharge any static electricity that you may have. You will be able to readily see that the quiet fan has a small connector connected to the power supply board (usually). Do not worry it is keyed so that you cannot plug it in backwards. Unplug it and undo the screws (usually 4) holding the fan to the back cover. Unless your tv is brand new, I know you will find considerable lint and dust on it (more if you have the tv in a carpeted room). Use some type of compressed air to dust it off (clean canned compressed air (usually sold at Radio Shack or other electronic supply businesses have them). Its like a can of wd40 with a straw nozzle except it sprays clean (not moist) compressed air. A regular air compressor has a tendency to spew out some moisture and that is not good for any electronic component. A good air output on a vacuum cleaner would also work. When you turn the fan by hand you will be able to see a very small opening around the whole circumference where it is turning. Try to blow some air into that to force out any lint and dust that might be there. If the problem is that the bearing inside the fan is drying up like wheel bearings on a car, you need to lubricate it. If it is noise that you can hear, then as you hold it in your hand you will also be able to feel it as you turn it manually. I have always used what is called clock oil or machine oil but in a spray can. Spray very little through the opening that you see around the circumference, but just a little at a time and turn it by hand. It only takes a couple of small sprays to quiet the fan down. If it does not, then you can replace it yourself by taking it to an electronics supply house and they can match it for you so the replacement fits where it is suppose to. If there are any tv repair shops around you close by take it to them as they may have one that is used buy still quiet from the ones they strip off tvs that they could not fix. To put it back is obvious. you will have to splice the two wires on the new one to the old one so that you still have use of the keyed connector on the end of the original fan. Good luck and God bless you. Robert

Can I replace the fan and how do I do it for a Benq PE8700

If the lamp LED flashes red, it indicates that the front cover is not installed properly, the fan is not working, the translation board is defective or the ventilation holes are blocked.

The first thing I would try is to remove the lamp assembly and try reinstalling. (Did you purchase a genuine BenQ lamp assembly)?

If ok, you can download a service manual here (but be advised, this is not for the unqualified. You should seek repair through your dealer).

I have Benq 19" FP93GX

That sounds like the power section may have problems and is radiating electronics noise ie signals.
If you have warranty get it fixed or replace it. Unfortunately Benq has had quality issues over the years. Sometimes parts and other times assembly. Your's might have both going on at the same time. Monitors are so cheap to buy that they are generally not worth fixing if you have to pay for it. I'm using a benq now and it is one I had to resolder a few places on the board before it worked properly.

When turn on blows cold air but makes loud whining noise like rubbing on something. almost a whine sound

sounds like your bearings are out on your fan motor. Some of the older fan motors have places where you can oil the bearings but most newer ones do not. Unless you have a place to oil the bearings and they are not already too far gone you best bet will be to replace the motor. Once the bearings start howling in the way you described it is time to start looking for a replacement. It is also possible (although unlikely) that the noise you hear is (a) the fan blade hitting part of the frame. (b) the bearings in the compressor.

Hi. The drive sounds like it has crashed out.
However, I have found a couple of places in Mexico which do service on computers and electronics.

the first is SEL..Tijuana, Mexico: Sony de Tijuana Este:
Sony Centro de Manufactura de Mexico; S.A. de C.V.

The next is Nuevo, Laredo, Mexico:
Sony Nuevo Laredo (SNL); S.A. de C.V.

The next is Mexicali, Mexico:
Sony de Mexicali


I hope one of these places can help you. I couldn't find their phone numbers right off hand, or I would give them to you as well.

I have a GE PROFILE pds22mhr and the freezer seems to be getting warmer. I took the back panel off and places some house fans on the coils and it seems to be dropping in Temp. I think the fan is no good...

Listen in the freezer side for the fan if you cannot hear or feel the air or fan running you probably need to replace it. Remove the back panel in the freezer to access the fan motor.<br /> <br /> <span id="ctl00_ctl00_MainColumn_CenterColumn_ThreadSolutions1_Repeater1_ctl00_lblSolution">If this was helpful please rate me.<br />IMUFO2<br />Leo Ponder Appliance-Tyler,Texas<br /><a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> </span>

Technics SA-DX940

Ratnesh, I have this same receiver and the fan only comes on at certain volume levels. Unfortunately I now live in an apartment and can very rarely listen to it that loud. I had the same problem for a little while until I thought about moving the receiver to the lowest shelf with nothing on top of it. This seems to have worked so far although it does still get quite warm. Good luck!
