Einleitung

If your fan is either broken or not running correctly, use this guide to replace it. This repair can be completed by one person using a PH1 Philips Head Screwdriver. Keep in mind that the Asus Vivobook S500CA uses a specific model fan, which must be acquired before beginning this replacement.

  1. vT2YQbWVuAVoUgsW

    • Turn the device over so the back plate is facing up.

  2. fYKECjVGRabLMgdL

    • Use a Phillips Head PH1 screwdriver to remove 10 screws around the perimeter of the back plate.

    • It may be helpful to lay out the screws in the orientation in which they are taken out, in order to help remember where they go.

  3. fgRsOFWynjZQDV5y

    • Remove the back plate by lifting it straight up.

    • Remove 2 (.5 cm) Phillips Head screws found around the fan and 4 (.3 cm) Phillips Head screws found around the heat sink connector.

  5. YJxKd3CKViXxKcNo

    • Unhook the electronic connection located above the fan by pulling the white connector straight out of the brown socket.

    • This photo is for demonstration purposes only. Do not remove by pulling the wires. Instead, remove by pulling on the edges of the white socket.

    • Remove the fan and connected heat sink by lifting straight out of the assembly.

    • Replace fan and follow steps 1-5 in reverse order to complete repair.

    I am repairing an Asus S500C (not CA) and ordered the fan without the heat sink. Does the fan just slide into the heat sink? Do I need to remove the heat sink? I noticed that you did not reference the screws that hold the heat sink down. How come?
