Introdução

If your Acer Aspire 3 A315-24PT-R288 is overheating or making loud noises, use this guide to replace the laptop's fan.

A laptop fan cools down the internal pieces of the laptop to prevent overheating. Without a working fan, overheating can cause damage to a computer's hardware, degrade the battery, or affect the performance of a laptop.

Before replacing your laptop fan, check for dirt or debris. Dust can build up on your laptop fan and block the airflow.
