Need help with PS2 fan
 

Hi to all,

I need your help with my fan. 2 weeks ago the fan stop working and i replaced it with a new fan. But stll the new fan is NOT working. Did anyone have the same problem? Any suggestions? I Also found a web in the States which they sell an external fan. Will it be able to cool the console by itself? If yes where can i find it in the uk? Please help.

Cheers

I don't know..Because the internal Fan keeps the CPU and the motherboard cooled down through the HeatSink..External means outside so how is it suppose to cool it down from the inside the heatsink?

I have received a reply from the suppliers of the USB external cooling fan saying that the USB fan is designed to add some extra cooling to the console-NOT to replace the fan.

So as no power is passing through the fan i decided to use an main plug adaptor to feed the fan with voltage. I used 5V output of the adaptor and now the fan is working FINE. It is not connected to the PS2 board but by an external power supply. Who cares as long as it works.

cheers
