What should I do if my laptop has a fever in summer?

Nowadays, laptops are prone to fever. On the one hand, it may be due to the high temperature in summer, and on the other hand, it may be due to too much dust accumulated in the fan. The greater the power, the stronger the fan wind force and the better the heat dissipation effect. The power of the fan is directly related to the speed of the fan, which means that the higher the speed of the fan, the more powerful the fan will be.

Next, let’s take a look at the laptop fan cleaning tutorial.

1. Remove the external power supply and battery from the notebook. Remember to cut off the power.

2. Remove the screws on the laptop fan casing and take off the casing. You can see a lot of adsorbed dust inside the casing. Use a rag to wipe the casing clean first.

3. After removing the casing, use a rag to wipe away the dust on the surface of the fan.

4. Remove the laptop fan fixing screws and remember to clean the built-in key cleaning areas.

5. Now let’s start the official cleaning. First, take a look at the situation before cleaning. It’s very dirty.

Cover the circuit board with a paper towel, and use a cotton swab with a small amount of water to wipe away the dust adsorbed on the fan. This is a tricky job, so apply it several times.

Then use tweezers to pick out the large pieces of fiber that are blocked everywhere.

Continue to clean the air outlet. This is the dirtiest place and the most affected area for heat dissipation. First cover the circuit board under the air outlet with paper, and then use a cotton swab with a small amount of water to gently remove it. Dust at the fan outlet.

Finally, use a rag to wipe away the dust on the surface of the circuit board. Be sure to use a dry rag to gently wipe it off, do not use force, and do not dip it in water to wipe it clean.

6. After cleaning, you can put back all the removed screws, first the two screws that fix the fan, and then the four screws on the back cover, and you're done.
