Introduzione
If your HP 15-ay114cy (also known as the HP Notebook 15) is running slow due to overheating, then you may have a faulty or broken laptop fan that will need to be replaced.
A proper working fan would maintain your laptop at a cool temperature while ensuring a fast-running device during use. If your laptop is new, then you may simply have a faulty fan. However, if your laptop has had extensive use, is also possible to experience these symptoms with your fan.
Before removing the fan, relate back to this troubleshooting page for further information about what is causing your symptoms. Moving forward, be sure to follow all prerequisite guides included for dismantling your device.
No special skills are required to remove and replace the device fan. However, you will need a plastic opening tool (plastic spudger) as well as a Phillips #0 Screwdriver.
