Introduzione
The cooling fan of any laptop or home computer ensures that the internal parts of the device do not overheat. For this reason it is important to make sure that your cooling fan is in working order and clean of dust. As with all disassembly guides, don’t forget to create a back up of your device’s hard drive.

It appears as though the jfan1 connection on the motherboard doesn’t have a plastic connector. I’ve bought a fan for this laptop to solve some overheating issues, but I can’t find anywhere to plug it in (I’m assuming that on similar models, the jfan1 connection would be the one to use). Is there any way that I can somehow plug my fan into this motherboard?
