    • While holding the switch in the open position, lift out the battery.

    • If you plan to work on any internal laptop components, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. This will dissipate any residual charge on the motherboard to prevent electrical shock when you begin to handle it.

    • Carefully unplug the connections shown.

    • Don't forget the display cable. It is slightly to the right of the Dell logo at the top.

    • Also, the wireless cables on the right side may prevent moving the upper case out of the way.

    • Remove the plastic case by gently bending back towards the screen. You can bend the screen all the way back if that helps.

    • For the motherboard the optical drive will be removed already. However for the lower case it is not necessary that it be taken out.

    • If you are having trouble removing the upper plastic case (and LCD) from the lower case, there may still be a wire connected to the Wi-Fi adapter. Turn the laptop over, open the Wi-Fi module access panel and remove the + and - leads for the Wi-Fi antenna.

I bought a new cooling fan from DELL but it does not work after installing it. The computer works fine but not the cooling fan. I double and triple checked the power connection but still it doesn't work.

Is there anything I can do to get power to the fan?

Thank you.

My Dell Inspiron E1705's processor fan was making sad, dying, and most importantly loud sounds. I ordered the part numbers from Ebay and followed this guide. It worked!

A few notes : I ordered the part numbers from Ebay, and originally was going to replace both the GPU and CPU fan. I decided to only replace the Processor fan because while the part number for the GPU fan and the shape/look of the GPU fan was identical, the GPU fan from Ebay was manufactured by Toshiba.

When opening the case, something was attached the the upper right hand corner (maybe the wifi?) I managed to maneuver around and get to the fans without taking the case all the way out.

The new fan works very well. I couldn't have done it without the guide, very helpful! It took me about 15 minutes start to finish.

I replaced one of the fans, but didn't realize they were two different sizes. At any rate. I tried to reassemble so I could see if it was still working, but now it won't boot. I also have 4 small screws that don't fit into the outside case holes, so I must have mixed up some screws somewhere. Is there a way to tell what screws go in what holes? And what might I have forgotten to plug in to get this issue? Also, in step two, there is a small cover on the edge of the bottom. I took the cover off and there is a connecter in there. Does anyone know what that is for?
