Foxconn CPU Cooler Fan CPU Fan - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Hi Tim,

I can not say for sure that this is whats happening, but from your description, it seems logical.

After work is done on a computer, sometimes one of the ribbon (data) or power cables isn't completely secured. It can move around within the case, especially if it is transported (like back from a shop).

On occasion one of the cables comes in contact with a CPU fan (or any of the fans in a computer).If it does, the noise they make is horrendous.

Fortunately, the fix is easy. Get a flashlight and a screwdriver.

• Open the box.
• Switch the computer on
• Locate the noise source if possible paying attention to the areas around the fans.
• When you find it switch off.
• If it was a cable just relocate it out of the way.

If this turns out not to be the problem, please comment back with more detail.

Best regards

Mike

You can solder the two open ends of the wires/base together. Generally, it doesn't hurt at all to have the yellow wire not connected. As long as the fan is still running, you will be fine. The yellow wire gives information about the fan RPM. You just won't be alerted if the fan stops working.

If you are innovative enough one can improvise by simply hold the fan to the heat sink with copper wire in case only one bracket is broken. The fan only requires to be on the heat sink to remove heat from the processor. Otherwise the fan & heat sink as one sealed unit only. Else try out the junk yard and see if you can hunt for one where PC's are dumped !

However if you want your PC to last for 2-3 yrs more, trouble-free, then my recommendation would be to replace the fan+heat sink unit, 'cos if the heat conducting paste between the processor & heat sink, if disturbed cannot be replaced to its original capacity & the processor will overheat and the PC will auto shut down repeatedly, till the processor is damaged permanently! .............................sodeep

It sounds like the fan bearing is shot, I'd recomend not using the computer until fan is replaced.
yes it is possible to replace the fan, i would recomend that you replace it with an aftermarket cooler. all you need is what kind of CPU you have, then find out what kind of socket it is, from there you can find the cooler you would like.

N15141, is not a model is Australian elect, certs codes, a useless number.g41 is old intel chip set, 3.2GB max DDR memoryno model mobo told./ at all (sticker labels not told)no answers easy butfoxconnchannel.com is dead, now, 2012 it died.ended DIY support, we guess for ever, dead 10 years.drives for what OS, not told, xp,vista,w7 or w8?windows 7 sure.,. linux?drivers are a 3 way match.the MOBO and its chip sets , vast,The OEM makers, supportand the OS.all three must match, unless using USB or VIDEO cardsbut no OS told at all.The G41 can run w10 is some rare cases. (best CPU there)2010 or newer PCs or mobo are best not old.G41 is a 2008 chip.the VGA chip there is unknown not telling real mobo model,nor if using a GPU card, VGA.?they used many then. sorry can not guess mobo models me.

n15235 is not a model number everthat is an Australian, electrical safety compliance code. and 100% useless .foxconnchannel went dead 2012. they stopped dead DIY mobo sales, and the wiki said so too.the manuals are all lost now./ but googling finds some. but no model told, no JOY.lost the CD too , new in the box it had one, with PDF on CDlost that?, yes, ouch./or get the real foxconn, model number mobothe google that and add the word manualand bingo all jumpers told. some foxconn mobo are called contract OEM mobothe top makers of OEM PC ordered those custom and put them in their PC and the only clue is the lack of any DIY foxconn model on the board at all.that n15235 is NOT IT.learn to post photos of the mobo and all labels there.

ask a question? who,what ,where,why, how,, etc

some boards are out of OEM PCs like gateways or the like others were sold as DIY from foxconn direct sales. did you lose the PC case? or buy just a mobo , raw? front panel pinouts you meant but failed to say just what:? foxconn (channel) went dead. 2012 the maunuls where there, then, and now all gone. they are gone. all is gone but the echo, (waybackmachine) old Intel P55 / H57 chipset age ,2009, and lost manuals, are are not, lost 2012 year when the went dead. no can find, me....

you forgot the question1: need the manual ,a1, GOOGLE FOR IT2: NEED DRIVERS. WELL MAKER TOOK DOWN THERE DIY SITE.3: OR ?????????????their web site was taken down for all legacy DIY mobo .the exited the DIY businesstry buying only Asus.com mobo and only 2010 and newerTHE MOBO IS GOODIT IS Intel H61 BASED, I3 GEN2 UP, EVEN I7-2XXXRealtek ALC656 – High DefinitionHERE IS RETRO SITEhttps://theretroweb.com/hardware/motherboards/hp-foxconn-cupertino2W10 RUN ON THIS MOBO, SOUND MIGHT FAIL BUT IS EASY FIX. ASK

94v-0 is PCB flame proof spec, certs.e253117, is outside USA, electrical safety certs, both uselessthen land on just ML.,useless too.the mobo I bet has a tag like these, learn to post real sticker tag labels only, not certs painted on the mobo we can not see.andWhat is N15235? (is and electric safety spec #)Often the marking N15235 is mistakenly deemed to be the model number of a mainboard or graphics card, but it's just Foxconn's ACA supplier code number which signifies that the product may be legally sold in Australia.
