Hi, I've lost blades on my left hand fan (looking from the back, from front under the [0]). Is it possible to replace the fan without taking all of the motherboard apart? I noticed you said there was some tape holding it on? How is it attached to the heat sink tubes? I'm not very confident about being able to do it.

Regarding your question, you don't need to remove the heatsink but you will need to remove the motherboard and flip it. and remove the fan tiny screws on the other side. take your time doing it, and you won't go wrong.

serviced laptops (including Dell) dozens of times, but this time after changing thermal paste I get a 3-2-1 beep and no on-screen diagnostics : / mobo replacement?
remove both rams, remove the battery and disconnect he BIOS battery and wait 1h for the board to discharge it self. plug the rams 1st and the bios battery and the rest and power on and wait 10sec for the boot. if no boot remove one of the rams and use one ram 1st then power on if power successful then power off and place the 2nd ram. let me know.
ah if you don't have a reballing station, then you won't be able to remove them, because you said "serviced laptops" i assumed you may have the reballing station . so in this case, i would recommend you to do the same steps without removing the ram, if no positive results given, then you will see yo find a experienced technician to do a reballing and replace the ram chips. also im not sure if you may have touched with heatsink or a metallic object tot he board and cause a short. examine the board to see if the heatsink is not touching directly any components.
Hi, I followed your video steps and my screen is flickering like if there's something wrong with the lcd or probably the GPU, is there anything specifically i can check so i can solve my problem. The screen goes black/deep blue and after i put it to sleep it works again, dunno what to check first
Hello. Thank you for the great video, cleared up my fan problem. However I stitched it on, all was fine but then my background dissappears, i can restart it, the background will be there then a minute later it dissappears again. Are you able to help me please.🙏
It's my pleasure my friend. 🫠Regarding your issue: remove the SSD drives and re insert them, this issues normally is because of bad connection. also scan your windows by opening CMD as admin and type: sfc /scannow Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me. cheers🍻
Soooo i did everything as carefully as possible, just to clean the fans. Put it all back in its place and no power. None from the cord and none from the battery. I can't find anything out of place although I did have one extra screw. Any ideas?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both! Regarding your question, did you open and serviced then the touch pad stop working ?, or stoped working randomly ?, was there water dropped on it?, give me more detail of how it came to not work.
@@uFixTek I opened it, did the maintenance, but I removed the battery, after closing it, it turned on normally, but the touchpad stopped working. I looked in the BIOS to see if it was disabled, but I didn't find anything.
MX-4 pumped out for me in about one month ,Gelid CG-Extreme and Kryonaut Extreme are ok. I think Alienwares heatsink might be a bit bent similar to Dell G3s. had 2 exact same m15 ,one ok ,other constant heat issues core 1-2 reaching 100C still.
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both! Regarding your issue, it is very common on having a bad not leveled heat-sink, i highly recommend you to use a more paste type of the thermal paste for e.g the best for the uneven surface use this, amzn.to/4383Lbr it is more pasty and harder to fill the gaps, and unlike cg or grisly that are runny.
It's my pleasure my friend. 😊 ya they require a bit more of work to get to them. Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.

ah if you don't have a reballing station, then you won't be able to remove them, because you said "serviced laptops" i assumed you may have the reballing station .
so in this case, i would recommend you to do the same steps without removing the ram, if no positive results given, then you will see yo find a experienced technician to do a reballing and replace the ram chips.
also im not sure if you may have touched with heatsink or a metallic object tot he board and cause a short.
examine the board to see if the heatsink is not touching directly any components.
got the other ssid configuration. screws hella tight and can't get them out without risking damaging the screw :(
use more pressure on the screw and very slow rotation with a higher pressure.

regarding your issue, there is a flex cable somewhere that is not inserted all the way. check the LCD cable 1st.

usually those tiny bridge connectors don't make a good contact, remove them and reinsert them. you see me taking them out @9:15
@@uFixTek yup that worked, which is good because it means I'm not out of a job lol thx
@@yofoshizzle66 im glad it worked, enjoy the laptop 💻 for a bit longer 🙃
I think I’ll just pay 💰 to get it done 😅 I’d definitely lose screws and break something
if you feel like you may loose or break something, def consider a service shop
